Photo above! how do i find the area of this? it says the answer is 1027ft but whenever i do it i don't get that

Total area = area of rectangle + area of triangle

area of rectangle = l * w

area of triangle= 1/2 (  b * h )

rectangle-  26 * 31 = 806

triangle- 1/2 ( 26 * 17 ) [ <-- 48 - 31 ] = 221

221 + 806 = 1027 ft squared

2 ways

cut into rectangle and triangle
2 recognize teh trapezoid

cut into rectangle and triangle
area of rectnagle=height times base

are oftrianngle=height times base times 1/2

rectangle=26 times 31=806

triangle

we have to know the base legnth
since the top is 31
and bottom is 48
the extra bit is 48-31=17
base=17
height=26
area=1/2 times 26 times 17=221

add
rectangle+traingle=806+221=1027 square units

other way
area of trapezoid=1/2(b1+b2) times height
b1=31
b2=48
height=26
A=1/2(31+48) times 26
A=1027 squaer units

The correct answer is c
