we divide the figure on two, find each area and sum
First
find the area
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=b\times h \\ A=6\times16 \\ A=96 \end{gathered}[/tex]
first area is 96 square centimeters
Second
find the area
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=b\times h \\ A=8\times14 \\ A=112 \end{gathered}[/tex]
second area is 112square centimeter
Total area
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=96+112 \\ A=208 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Total area is 208square centimeters
