the triangle on the left area is 18 because the area of a triangle is 1/2 b times h so 12 times 3 times 1/2 equals 18.you then cut a triangle from the quadrilateral to make into a triangle.The triangle is the same height has other triangle so its area is 18.Since you took three for base of left and right triangle you subtract 6 from 1 to make it your base of 8 and your height is 12 and 12 tikmes 8 is 96 so 18+18+96=132 so our answer is 132.
