The area of the figure is 400 sq in

From looking at this figure you can see there are 2 different shapes in it. A parallelogram and a triangle.

For parallelogram, the formula to find Area is bh
For Triangle its b
h÷2

So first we find the area of the parallelogram. In this case it would be...
 
A= bh
=20
16
=320

Now we find the area for the triangle

A=bh÷2
A=20
8÷2
A=80

Now finally, we add them all up to find the total area of the figure!
So, 80+320 = 400

Therefore, the area of the figure is 420 in^2. Hope this helped!
