We would divide the shape into a rectangle and a trapezium
The rectangle is of length, 24.5 ft and width 10.75 ft
Area = 24.5 10.75 = 263.375 square feet.
Trapezium : Parallel sides are 18.5 ft and 24.5 ft
Height: 12 - 10.75 = 1.25ft
Area of Trapezium = (1/2)(Sum of Parallel sides)height
= 1/2 (18.5+24.5) 1.25
= 1/2 43* 1.25 = 26.875
Total Area = Area of Rectangle + Area of Trapezium
= 263.375 + 26.875 = 290.25
Area = 290.25 ft² (D)
