Answer:
11 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's do this the easy way.
1 * 1 is just 1² which is just 1.
The 3 inches on the bottom don't count.
Change the next 3 to a 4.
Why?
Your adding another inch.
So, 4 * 5 then break the product into HALF.
10 plus that 1 inch equaling 11 square inches.
