Answer:
Option (1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the polygon = Area of CDE + Area of EFG + Area of ABCF
Area of triangle CDE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}(3)(2)[/tex]
= 3 units²
Area of ΔCDE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(5)(1)[/tex]
= 2.5 units²
Area of trapezoid ABCF = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}(8+11)(4)[/tex]
= 38 units²
Area of the given polygon = 3 + 2.5 + 38
= 43.5 units²
Therefore, Option (1) will be the correct option.
