Answer:
[tex]28.5[/tex] [tex]units^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can split this shape into an 8 by 3 rectangle and a 3 by 3 triangle
So we find the area of each shape and then add them together
To find the area oof a rectangle it is length times width
[tex]8*3=24[/tex]
The formula for a triangle area is 1/2 times base times height
[tex]\frac{1}{2} *3*3[/tex]
[tex]4.5[/tex]
And now we add the area of the 2 shapes
[tex]24+4.5=28.5[/tex]
I hope this helps
