8 0

The answer is: x = 10, y = 2

Leave a thanks because your welcome :)

Work:

x + y = 12
(10) + (2)+ = 12

x - 2y = 6
(10) - 2(2) = 6
10 - 4 = 6
Correct

Split it into 7 triangles. Half-base of each is 2 so the distance of center to the midpoint of the base is (Pythagoras) square root of (4.62 - 22) = 4.162 triangle is this times 2, and with 7 triangles multiply also by 7 to get an approximate area of 58 sq in.
