Answer:

area = 62ft

Explanation

so you section the polygon into a big rectangle and 2 small rectangles

the area of the small rectangle will be 2ft x 3ft which will be 6 ft, and as there are 2 of them the area of it will be 12ft

the area of the big rectangle will be 10ft x 5ft, as 8ft - 3ft is 5ft so 5x10=50ft

now add the areas you got, 50+12 which is 62ft

hope this helps:)
