What is the area of the figure shown below.

It’s 64. You can cut it into a rectangle and triangle. For the rectangle, you multiply 6 by 8 to get an area of 48. For the triangle, you multiply 8 by 4, then divide it by 2 to get 16. You add the area of the triangle and rectangle, then you get the area of the entire shape which is 64. (48+16=64)
