Answer 2

ok, so you start with the areas of the two triangles.
The sides of one triangle would be 8, 15, and 17, which is a right triangle by the pythagorean theorem.

So the area of one triangle is 8x15, which equals 120 in^2

The area of the long rectangle equals (8+15+17)9
which equals 40*9
which equals 360.

So the total surface area is:
360+2(120)

which equals 600 in^2
