Triangle (1/2bxh)

The base of the triangle would be 8 cm as the top and the bottom of the rectangle is the same width. The height was given to be 5 cm (note the height is the dotted line) Therefore the area of the triangle is half the base which is (8×1/2 = 4) times the height (5); which is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the first image is:

$A=A_{t} +A_{r} =\frac{bh}{2} +bh =\frac{(8)(5)}{2} +(8)(5)=20+40=60cm^{2}$

The área of the second image:
