The given figure is a trapezoid. To find the area of a trapezoid, you can use the formula:

Area = 1/2 * (b1 + b2) * h

where:
b1 = length of the first base (bottom side of the trapezoid) = 8 cm
b2 = length of the second base (top side of the trapezoid) = 4 cm
h = height of the trapezoid = 10 cm

Plugging in the values:
Area = 1/2 * (8 + 4) * 10
Area = 1/2 * 12 * 10
Area = 6 * 10
Area = 60 square centimeters

Therefore, the area of the given figure is 60 square centimeters.

Apologies for the error. Let's recalculate the area of the trapezoid.

To find the area of a trapezoid, you can use the formula:

Area = 1/2 * (b1 + b2) * h

where:
b1 = length of the first base (bottom side of the trapezoid) = 8 cm
b2 = length of the second base (top side of the trapezoid) = 4 cm
h = height of the trapezoid = 10 cm

Plugging in the values:
Area = 1/2 * (8 + 4) * 10
Area = 1/2 * 12 * 10
Area = 6 * 10
Area = 60 square centimeters

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is indeed 60 square centimeters.
