Answer:
Area = 184 ft^2
sorry if the answer is wrong, i'll fix it if so. here is what my reasoning is :)
Step-by-step explanation:
both triangles marked in red have the same dimensions, therefore they are the same area. we can call this area a1
both triangles marked in yellow have the same dimensions, therefore they are the same area. we can call this a2
we can calculate the are for both a1 and a2. we use the triangle area formula to get our answers. in the picture, i solved for only one of the a1 triangles, as well as only one of the a2 triangles. i know that there are two a2 triangles and two a1 triangles, so i can add up all my areas. i did a1 + a1 + a2 + a2 to get my answer. let me know if you have any more questions or i have a flaw in my answer.
