30  square inches.

Given:

The wooden cutout of the lightning bolt consists of 2 right angled triangles with the legs being 10 inches and 3 inches.

The area of this lightning bolt will be equal to the sum of the areas of the two right angled triangles.

The area of a triangle of base 'b' and height 'h' is given as:

Here Plug in solve for area of one of the triangles.

Therefore, area of the right angled triangle is:

Now, the two right angled triangles are congruent. So, total area is twice the area of one of the triangle.

Therefore, total area of the lightning bolt is:
