Answer:

74 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation: You should find the area of each shape and add all the areas together to get the full area of the shape.

(base x height)+(length x breath)+(1/2 x base x height)
(10x5)+(6x3)+(
1/2x3x4)

50+18+6

74 ← this is the full area of the shape

and, remember when finding the area of a triangle you should always multiply 1/2 too for example- ( 1/2 x base x height )

Answer: I’m pretty sure it’s 80

Explanation:

Because the very top triangle is 4x3 which is 12 then the rectangle under it is 6x3 which is 18 then the triangle under that is 5x3 which is 15 and the triangle on the left is also 15 and the square in the middle is 4x5 which is 20 and add it all up 12+18+15+15+20=80 sry if that’s confusing.
