Answer:
The area of the figure is [tex]962.48\ in^{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of the figure is equal to the area of parallelogram plus the area of rectangle
Step 1
Find the area of rectangle
The area of rectangle is equal to
[tex]A=LW[/tex]
we have
[tex]L=42.4\ in[/tex]
[tex]L=10.5\ in[/tex]
substitute
[tex]A=42.4*10.5=445.2\ in^{2}[/tex]
Step 2
Find the area of parallelogram
The area of parallelogram is equal to
[tex]A=bh[/tex]
we have
[tex]b=42.4\ in[/tex]
[tex]h=12.2\ in[/tex]
substitute
[tex]A=42.4*12.2=517.28\ in^{2}[/tex]
step 3
Find the area of the figure
[tex]445.20\ in^{2}+517.28\ in^{2}=962.48\ in^{2}[/tex]
