To find the area of the figure, we need to identify the shape and break it down into simpler shapes if necessary.
Given the measurements provided, it seems like the figure might be a trapezoid.
The formula to find the area of a trapezoid is:
Area = (1/2) * (sum of the lengths of the parallel sides) * (height)
In this case, the parallel sides are 18 in and 10 in, and the height is 8 in.
Area = (1/2) * (18 in + 10 in) * 8 in
= (1/2) * (28 in) * 8 in
= 14 in * 8 in
= 112 square inches
So, the area of the figure is 112 square inches.
