Answer
The total are = 650 m$^{2}$
Work Step by Step
To find the area of the entire object we simply break the object into 2 pieces: a triangle on the left and a parallelogram on the right.
Area of a Triangle: $A$$_{tri}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$$b$$h$
Therefore:
$A$$_{tri}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$(27 m)(20 m)
$A$$_{tri}$ = 270 m$^{2}$
Area of a Parallelogram: $A$$_{parallel}$ = $b$$h$
$A$$_{parallel}$ = (20 m)(19 m)
$A$$_{parallel}$ = 380 m$^{2}$
$A$$_{total}$ = $A$$_{tri}$ + $A$$_{parallel}$
$A$$_{total}$ = 270 m$^{2}$ + 380 m$^{2}$
$A$$_{total}$ = 650 m$^{2}$
