To find the area of a quadrilateral, we need to divide it into shapes with known formulas for area. In this case, the quadrilateral can be divided into a rectangle and a triangle.
Given that the base of the quadrilateral is 10 cm and the height is 6 cm, the area of the rectangle is 10 cm * 6 cm = 60 cm^2.
The area of the triangle is 1/2 * base * height = 1/2 * 8 cm * 6 cm = 24 cm^2.
Therefore, the total area of the quadrilateral is 60 cm^2 (rectangle) + 24 cm^2 (triangle) = 84 cm^2.
The correct response is not among the options provided, but the closest one is 54 cm^2.
