.
Find the area of the figure. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

X(3,2), Y(5,0), Z(5,-3), U(-5,-3), V(-5,0), W(-3,2)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



<pre>
It is a simple union of the rectangle YZUV with dimensions 10 by 3 units and 

a trapezoid XYVW with the bases of 10 and 6 units long and the height of 2 units.



So the total area = 10*3 + {{{((10+6)/2)*2}}} = 30 + 16 = 46 square units.
