One of the angle of the triangle is 90 degrees which means it is a right angled triangle. Two angles are same i.e 45 degrees which means the angle is an isosceles triangle.
so, x = 17 (isosceles triangle)
then use pythagoreas theorem:

and x = 17, so simplify and

so

Answer:
139.5 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a geometric shape with all sides of equal length is:
A (1/2)nsr
n = the number of sides
s = the length of the sides
r = the length of the apothem
The apothem is the line going from the center point of the shape to the middle of one of the sides.
A = (1/2)(5)(9)(6.2)
A = (1/2)279
A = 139.5 mm
Step One
Find the base area of the large hexagon as though the smaller one was not removed.
Area = 3*Sqrt(3) * a^2 /2 where a is the length of one side of the hexagon
a = 5
Area = 3*sqrt(3) * 25/2 = 75 sqrt(3) / 2 of the large hexagon without the smaller one removed.
Step Two
Find the area of the smaller hexagon. In this case a = 4
Area2 = 3*sqrt(3)*16/2 = 3*sqrt(3)*8 = 24 sqrt(3)
Step Three
Find the area of the thick hexagonal area left by the removal of the small hexagon.
Area of the remaining piece = area of large hexagon - area of the small hexagon
Area of the remaining piece = 75 *sqrt(3)/2 - 24*sqrt(3)
Step Four
Find the volume of the results of the area from step 3
Volume = Area * h
h = 18
Volume = (75 * sqrt(3)/2 - 24*sqrt(3))* 18
I'm going to leave you with the job of changing all of this to a decimal answer. I get about 420 cm^3
Substitute answers in, a = 3 and b = 2.
(3^2 - 2^2)/(3+2)
= (9-4)/5
= 5/5
= 1
C, because if it was D, they would be the same, which is A written in another format. Then process of elimination
