find the area of the figure pictured below. 3.8ft 8.3ft 7.4ft 3.9ft

The can be divided into two rectangles, one having length [tex]8.3[/tex] and width $3.8$
Another with, dimensions $7.4-3.8=3.6$ and $3.9$
Area of first rectangle=$3.8\times8.3=31.54$
Area of second rectangle =$3.6\times3.9=14.04$
Total area $=31.54+14.04=45.58$ ft²
Answer:
45.58 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can split the figure into two pieces
We have a tall rectangle that is 3.8 by 8.3
A = 3.8 * 8.3 =31.54 ft^2
We also have a small rectangle on the right
The dimensions are ( 7.4 - 3.8) by 3.9
A = 3.6*3.9 =14.04 ft^2
Add the areas together
31.54+14.04
45.58 ft^2
