Answer:

Area of the figure is 304 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is divided into two identical trapezoids of height 8 units and bases 14 and 24 units.

Area of a trapezoid = (1/2) * (Sum of base lengths) * height

So, area of 1 one trapezoid = (1/2)*(14+24)*8=152

The area of the figure is twice the area of the trapezoid.

So, area of figure = 2 * 152 = 304 sq. units

∴ Area of the figure is 304 sq. units
