Find the area of the irregular figure.

A figure with 6 sides is shown.
The lower left edge of the figure measures 4 units.
The lower right edge of the figure measures 15 units. A dashed segment from the top vertex to the bottom edge measures 25 units and meets the bottom edge at right angles. The segment between the left edge and dashed segment measures 16 units. The segment between the dashed segment and right edge measures 10 units.

A.
432 units2
B.
438 units2
C.
650 units2
D.

you can always break it up into triangles and maybe rectangles.
The above description is hard to envision.
Why not label the vertices ABCDEF and tell whether it is concave or convex, and what the side lengths are, as wll as any points of intersection.
Huh?
use brain.ly to actually get answers. all you hafta do it just skip the add by adjusting the time on the bottom of the screen to see.
