find the area. the figure is not drawn to scale.

Answer:
Total area of the figure=[tex]248.5cm^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given figure has a rectangle and a triangle:
The area of the figure= Area of rectangle+Area of triangle
Length of the rectangle= 13 cm
Width=9 cm
[tex]Area = length * width\\\\= 13*9\\\\=121 cm^2[/tex]
Area of the triangle= 1/2 * base * Height
Height= 11 cm
Base= 13-8=5 cm
Area of the rectangle:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}*5*11\\\\ =\frac{1}{2}*55\\\\=27.5cm^2[/tex]
Total area of the figure:
[tex]= 121+27.5=248.5 cm^2[/tex]
Answer: 144.5
Step-by-step explanation:
area of the triangle is 27.5
area of the rectangle is 117
117+27.5=144.5
