screenshotted question below

Answer:
962 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1) 40+34= 74
Step 2) 74/2= 37
Step 3) 37*26=962 square inches.
Answer:
A=962 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Square: there's a 34x26in square in the shape so find that area separately
A_square=34x26=884 in^2
Triangle: there's a triangle in the shape such that it has a height of 26 in and a side of (40-34)=6in
A_triangle = (6x26)/2=78in^2
Total Area: add both areas
A_total = A_square + A_triangle = 884+78=962in^2
