Assuming the dot is the in-center and the triangle is equilateral,
The figure can be divided into six 30-60-90 triangles with altitude of 8.5 and base of 8.5√3.
A = 375.422015
The area is 375.42 square inches, rounded to 2 decimal places.
I have checked this with 2 different online area-computing programs, so I am confident that it is correct.
Note: Someone worked this using 8.75 rather than 8.5; another method was used. It yielded an incorrect answer. I worked it with 8.5 (using the other method) and got the same answer as above.
