Answer:

Area of the polygon = 46 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Irregular polygon is in a composite figure having triangle A, rectangle B and  rectangle C.

Area of the polygon = Area of triangle A + Area of rectangle B + area of rectangle C

Area of triangle A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})[/tex]

                              = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(8)(2)[/tex]

                              = 8 square units

Area of rectangle B = Length × Width

                                 = 8 × 4

                                 = 32 square units

Area of rectangle C =  3 × 2

                                 = 6 square units

Area of the polygon = 8 + 32 + 6

                                 = 46 square units
