To find the area of the quadrilateral, we need to split it into two triangles and then add their areas together.
The area of the first triangle is (6 in * 12 in) / 2 = 36 in^2
The area of the second triangle is (8 in * 10 in) / 2 = 40 in^2
Therefore, the total area of the quadrilateral is 36 in^2 + 40 in^2 = 76 in^2
Therefore, the closest answer choice is 80in.^2.
