Step 1
Divide the image into 2 rectangles
The area of a rectangle is
[tex]A=length\times width[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} For\text{ rectangle 1} \\ A_1=60\times20=1200yd^2 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} For\text{ Rectangle 2} \\ A_2=50\times10=500yd^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
The total area of the shape will be;
[tex]A=A_1+A_2=1200+500=1700yd^2[/tex]
Answer;
[tex]A=1700\text{ square yards}[/tex]
