Answer: Second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can divide the arrow into two figures:  A triangle and a rectangle (See the figure attached).

The area of a triangle can be calculated wit this formula:

[tex]A_t=\frac{bh}{2}[/tex]

Where "b" is the base of the triangle and "h" is the height.

In this case, you can identify that:

[tex]b=6\ in\\\\h=8\ in-5\ in=3\ in[/tex]

Therefore, you get that the area of the triangle is:

[tex]A_t=\frac{6\ in*3\ in}{2}\\\\A_t=9\ in^2[/tex]

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with this formula:

[tex]A_r=lw[/tex]

Where "l" is the lenght of the rectangle and "w" is the width.

In this case:

[tex]l=5\ in\\\\w=4\ in[/tex]

Therefore, its area is:

[tex]A_r=5\ in*4\ in\\\\A_r=20\ in^2[/tex]

And the total area of the arrow is:

[tex]A_T=9\ in^2+20\ in^2\\\\A_T=29\ in^2[/tex]
