Answer:
7 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We take the "3 in" dimension at the left to be the length of the line segment below the 1" square, so the height of the right triangle is 3+1 = 4 in.
The triangle area is ...
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(3 in)(4 in) = 6 in²
The square area is ...
A = s²
A = (1 in)² = 1 in²
Then the total area of the figure is ...
1 in² + 6 in² = 7 in²
