Answer:
B 59 in.^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The polygon is made up of three different polygons. Calculate each area, and add them.
1) rectangle 4 in. by 7 in.
2) triangle with 7 in. base and 6 in. height
3) triangle with 4 in. base and 5 in. height
area of rectangle = length * width
area of triangle = base * height / 2
total area =
= 4 in. * 7 in. + 7 in. * 6 in./2 + 4 in. * 5 in./2
= 28 in.^2 + 21 in.^2 + 10 in.^2
= 59 in.^2
