Answer:
75.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, the picture is not to scale.
The Area of the bottom (2) rectangle is 33
base x height = A
11 x 3 = 33 (where did I get 3? Total height of shape is 8. Trapezoid is 5)
(8-5 = 3)
Area of the trapezoid:
A = [tex]\frac{h (B_{1} + B_{2}) }{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{(5)(6 + 11)}{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{5(17)}{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{85}{2}[/tex]
= 42.5
42.5 + 33 = 75.5
