Explanation:
we can split the figure into 'regular' figures
the central region is a rectangle
the regions above and below the rectangle are triangles
∙ area of rectangle =length × breadth
∙ area of triangle =12× base × height
area of rectangle =7×4=28
area of 2 congruent triangles =2×12×7×2=14
area of figure =28+14=42 square units
