26 x 15 = 390

-Next, find the area of the triangle on top:

9 x 8/2 = 36

-Finally, add the two to get the full area of the figure:

Answer 2

426 square feet

Explanation:

First, find the angle of each shape separately.

Area of a triangle = 1/2 base times height

1/2(9x8)

1/2(72) = 36

Area of a rectangle = base times height.

26 x 15 = 390

Now, add the numbers together to get the total area. 390+36=426
