Answer 2

Answer:

the trapezium ABCD  is divided into a triangle and a rectangle

we need to find length of the missing side

by Pythagoras theorem, we can find the lengh of that side

15^2 + x^2 = 17^2

225 + x^2 = 289

            x^2= 289 -225

                  =61

             x = $\sqrt{61}$

area of triangle = 1/2x b x h

                          = 1/2 x 15 x $\sqrt{61}$

                           =15$\sqrt{61}$/2

area of the rectangle = 8 x $\sqrt{61}$ =$8\sqrt{61}$

area of the rectangle is (area of triangle )+(area of rectangle )

                    =      8\sqrt{61} +   5$\sqrt{61}$/2
