Denote the area of quadilateral MBQP as A, the area of the triangle MBP as A_1 and the area of the triangle BPQ as A_2.

Note that:

1.

A_{\triangle CMB}=\dfrac{1}{3}A_{\triangle ABC}=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 30=10\ cm^2.

2.

A_{\triangle CPQ}=A_2.

3.

A_{\triangle ABQ}=\dfrac{1}{2}A_{\triangle ABC}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 30=15\ cm^2.

4.

A_{\triangle APM}=2A_1.

Now

A+A_{\triangle CPQ}=A_{\triangle CMB}\Rightarrow A+A_2=10\ cm^2.

A+A_{\triangle AMP}=A_{\triangle ABQ}\Rightarrow A+2A_1=15\ cm^2.

You get the system of three equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}A=A_1+A_2\\A+A_2=10\\A+2A_1=15\end{array}\right..

Substitute the first equation into the last two:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}A_1+A_2+A_2=10\\A_1+A_2+2A_1=15\end{array}\right.\Rightarrow \left\{\begin{array}{l}A_1+2A_2=10\\A_2+3A_1=15\end{array}\right..

From the first equation A_1=10-2A_2 and then

A_2+3(10-2A_2)=15,\\ \\A_2+30-6A_2=15,\\ \\-5A_2=-15,\\ \\A_2=3\ cm^2.

Thus,

A_1=10-2\cdot 3=10-6=4\ cm^2

and

A=4+3=7\ cm^2.

Answer: 7 sq. cm

Area is trapezium =
A=1/2h(a+b)

84=1/2(6)(7+b)

84=3(7+b)

84=21+3b

3b=84-21

B=63/3

B= 21 cm

I’m sorry if my answer turned out to be wrong but I tried my best so best of luck !!
