    The area of the trapezoid is calculated through the equation,

    A = 0.5 (b₁ + b₂) h

    where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the given dimensions,

    A = 0.5 (14 + 24) (8) = 152

    Since the figure was divided into 2 trapezoids, the total area is equal to 304 unit squared.
