Can somebody please help me with this question?

Answer:
x^2 -16
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is
A = 1/2 bh
A = 1/2 ( 2x+8) ( x-4)
Distribute
A = ( x+4)(x-4)
FOIL
x^2 -4x+4x-16
Combine like terms
x^2 -16

▹ Answer
x² - 16
▹ Step-by-Step Explanation
A = 1/2 bh
A = (2x + 8) * (x - 4)
A = (x + 4) * (x - 4)
A = x² - 4x + 4x - 16
A = x² - 16
Hope this helps!
