(asap worth 10 points) marcus loves baseball and wants to create a home plate for his house. marcus needs to calculate the area of the home plate at the ball field so he can reconstruct it when he gets home. calculate the area of the polygon.
72.5 in
75.5 in
83 in
96 in

83 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate, add the areas of all three shapes that make up the polygon.

Area of rectangle = L×W = 5×8 = 40 in².

Area of top triangle = 1/2×b×h = 1/2×8×7=28 in².

Area of triangle on the right = 1/2×6×5 = 15 in².

Total area = 40+28+15 = 83 in²

4 + 5 7/9= 9 7/9
