Image shows a polygon that looks like a rectangle with a triangle attach to the left side of it closer to the top. The polygon has 5 sides. The top side of the polygon is 12 inches. The right side is perpendicular to the top side and is 7 inches. The bottom side is perpendicular to the right side and is 8 inches. The left side has two segment parts.

Answer 1

Answer:

62 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the composite figure is equal to the area of a rectangle plus the area of a triangle

so

$A=(8)(7)+\frac{1}{2}(7-4)(12-8)$

$A=56+6=62\ in^2$
