Answer:

Area
=70in^2

Explanation:

The given diagram is a tra-pezoid.

The area of a tra-pezoid is calculated using the formula;

Area
$=(1)/(2) (Sum\:of\:parallel\:sides)* height$

This implies that;

Area
=(1)/(2) (8+12)* 7

Area
=(1)/(2) (20)* 7

Area
=(10)* 7

Area
=70in^2

The last choice is correct.
