I don't have the figure — I only see a list of numbers. Could you either attach the picture or describe the shape (which segment corresponds to which side and how the segments connect)?
How I can solve it once I have the figure:
- If the polygon is made of axis-aligned rectangles (right angles), decompose it into rectangles, compute each rectangle's area, and add/subtract as appropriate.
- For a general polygon, list the vertices in order and use the shoelace formula.
If you meant a common L‑shaped case (example assumption):
- Outer rectangle 15 mi by 8 mi, with a removed rectangle 7 mi by 4 mi (numbers 15, 8, 7, 4 appear in your list). Then area = 15·8 − 7·4 = 120 − 28 = 92 square miles.
If that matches your figure, the area is 92 square miles. If not, please upload or describe the diagram and I’ll compute the exact area.
