The area of the trapezoid is calculated through the equation,
                       A = 0.5(b₁ + b₂)h
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the given dimensions,
                       A = 0.5(14 + 24)(8) = 152 
Since the figure was divided into 2 trapezoids, the total area is equal to 304 unit squared.
