Answer:
44 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the letter is formed by several figures.
Notice that all figures are parallelograms, where their area is defined as
[tex]A=bh[/tex]
Where [tex]b[/tex] is the base length and [tex]h[/tex] is the height.
Horizontal parallelograms:
[tex]A_{1}=6(2)=12in^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A_{2}=6(2)=12in^{2}[/tex]
Vertical parallelogram:
[tex]A_{3}=2(10)=20in^{2}[/tex]
So, the total area is
[tex]A_{total}=A_{1} +A_{2} +A_{3}=12+12+20=44in^{2}[/tex]
Therefore, the answer is 44 square inches.
