    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
