Answer:
62.4 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The unmarked horizontal dimension at the bottom of the triangle is ...
(8 ft)sin(30°) = 4 ft
The unmarked vertical dimension of the triangle (the height of the trapezoid) is ...
(8 ft)cos(30°) ≈ 6.93 ft
Then the area of the trapezoid is given by the formula ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
A = (1/2)((4 ft+7 ft) +(7 ft))(6.93 ft) ≈ 62.4 ft²
_____
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA can remind you of the relationships between right triangle dimensions and angles.
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse ⇒ Hypotenuse×Sin = Opposite
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse ⇒ Hypotenuse×Cos = Adjacent
2:3
it was originally 8:12, but it has to be simplified. 2/3 can also work as an answer.
X + x + x + 20 + 10 = 180
(combine like terms)
3x + 30 = 180
3x=180-30
3x=150
x=150/3
x=50
You're pretty much screwed
