What is the area of the figure down below

68

Explanation:

So to get this answer you need to split it into smaller shapes. We already have the squares so we know that 3*3 is 9 and then we double that because there are two of them.

So, so far we have 18+x

We need to take the middle shape and split it into two trapezoids.

The area for trapezoids is T=(a+b/2)h

So T= (3+7/2)5
T= 5*5=25
And then we would double that because there are two of them so 50 and then fill it in for x
18+50= 68 is the area of the figure.
