Uhh I think that would be 85 cm squared? I figured this out because 6 x 10 = 60. Then, 10 x 5 = 50. However, you would need to apply the rule that when finding the area of a triangular figure, you have to divide it by two. Therefore, because 50 divided by 2 = 25, your answer would be 85 cm squared (60 + 25 = 85).
