Answer:
24 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the area of the figure, surface area is for three dimensional figures
The area of the triangle is
A = 1/2 bh
A = 1/2 (3) *4 = 6
The area of the top rectangle is
A = l*w = 3 * (8-4) = 3* 4 = 12
And the area of the bottom rectangle
A = l*w = 1.5 ( 8-4) = 1.5*4 =6
The total area is the sum of the individual areas
6+12+6 = 24
24 cm^2
