Another way:

 

You can split the shape up into a parallelogram and a triangle:

Count the number of units in the lengths and heights of each shape.

 

And remember that

 

area of parallelogram  =  length of base * length of height

 

area of triangle  =  1/2 * length of base * length of height

 

Then you can calculate the area of the parallelogram and the area of the triangle.

 

Add the two areas together to find the total area of the figure.

 

(I'm pretty sure there are other ways to solve this too. smiley)
