We would section the figure into two shapes as shown below
We can see a trapezium and a rectangle. We would find the area of each figure and add them.
For the trapezium,
Area = 1/2 * (a + b)h
a nd b are the opposite sides of the trapezium while h represents the height.
Thus,
a = 20, b = 24 and h = 9es of the trapezium while h represents the height.
