Answer:
70 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We know,
Area of triangle = [tex](\frac{1}{2}*base*height)[/tex] square unit
In case of the blue triangle,
The area is = [tex](\frac{1}{2}*8*10)[/tex] square inches
= 40 square inches
In case of the red triangle,
The area is = [tex](\frac{1}{2}*6*10)[/tex] square inches
= 30 square inches
Now,
Total area of blue and red triangle is (40+30) square inches
= 70 square inches
