The figure shown consists of a rectangle and a parallelogram. find the area of the entire figure.

16

Step-by-step explanation:

base times height of both figures then add

Area of a rectangle is Length times Width

Area of a Parallelogram  Height time Base

If it was me i would go with A or B

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
