Answer:
256 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the base's area. 6 ft x 13 ft = 78 ft ^2
2. Find the area of one of the sides (if you know what I mean). 13 ft x 5 ft = 65 ft ^2
3. Find the area of the front (it's the triangle). 6 ft x 4 ft = 24 ft ^2 (no need to times by 1/2)
4. Before we add them all together, there are two of the sames sides that have an area of 65 ft (^2), so you add them twice. Same goes to the triangles (because there is one triangle in the front and one on the back).
5. Add.
65 ft ^2 + 65 ft ^2 + 78 ft ^2 + 24 ft ^2 + 24 ft ^2 = 256 ft^2
