Answer: A. 76 sq. units
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You can use the following formula for calcualte the area of the parallelogram:
[tex]A_p=b_p*h_p[/tex]
Where [tex]b_p[/tex] is the base and [tex]h_p[/tex] is the height of the parallelogram
[tex]b_p=14units-3units-3units=8units[/tex] and [tex]h_p=6units[/tex]
2. The formula for calculate the area of a rectangle is:
[tex]A_r=b_r*h_r[/tex]
Where [tex]b_r[/tex] is the base and [tex]h_r[/tex] is the height of the rectanngle.
[tex]b_r=14units[/tex] and [tex]h_r=2units[/tex]
3. Then, the area of the figure is the sum of the area of the parallelogram and the area of the rectangle:
[tex]A_f=(8units*6units)+(14units*2units)=76units^{2}[/tex]
