Expert Solution
Step 1

We know 1 foot = 12 inches

So, 28 feet = 28×12 inches= 336 inches

And 12 feet = 12×12 inches = 144 inches.

So, the rectangular part has a length of 336 inches and a wide of 144 inches.

Then the area of the whole rectangular part is = length × wide   square inches.

 = 336×144 square inches

= 48384 square inches.

Now, 4 feet = 4×12 inches = 48 inches

So, the triangular part has a base of 48 inches and a height of 144 inches.

Then the area of the triangular part is

12×base×height square inches 

12×48×144 square inches

= 3456 square inches.
