To find the area of the spaceship, we need to find the total area of the rectangle and then subtract the areas of the two right triangles.
Area of the rectangle = length x width
Area of the rectangle = 8 ft x 4 ft = 32 ft^2
Area of one right triangle = (1/2) base x height
Area of one right triangle = (1/2) x 2 ft x 3 ft = 3 ft^2
So, the total area of both right triangles = 2 x 3 ft^2 = 6 ft^2
Therefore, the area of the spaceship (rectangle minus triangles) = 32 ft^2 - 6 ft^2 = 26 ft^2
Therefore, the area of the spaceship is 26 ft^2
So the correct answer is 26 ft^2
