+3 +3

x^2=12

and go from there

Please help by solving with method. Thanks

Answer:

(a) AD=6 cm

(b) 66 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) To get the length of AD, we can use pythagoras on the triangle part. Let's say the dotted line intersects DC at E. Then since AB and DC are parallel, AD is equal to BE. EC = 8 cm simply by subtracting AB from DC (15-7=8).

Then pythagoras says that 8²+BC²=10². So BC = √(100-64) = 6. And since BC=AD, AD is also 6.

(b) Area of the rectangle DEBA is 7*6 = 42. Area of triangle ECB is base times half height: 8*3 = 24. Sum is 42+24 = 66 cm²
