Answer:

A. 806.5 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure given is a combination of a rectangle, a trapezoid and a triangle.

The formulas for the areas of each figure:

Rectangle: length x width

Trapezoid: [tex]h(\frac{b_{1}+b_{2}}{2})[/tex], where [tex]b_{1}[/tex] and [tex]b_{2}[/tex] are the lengths of each base and h is the height of the figure

Triangle: 1/2 bh, b = base and h = height

For each of the figures given:

rectangle: 16 x 9 = 144 in²

trapezoid: [tex]15(\frac{31+16}{2})[/tex] = 352.5 in²

triangle: 1/2(31*20) = 310 in²

310 + 144 + 352.5 = 806.5 in²

Answer: It is A
