1. set up the equation which makes these shapes equal, 1/2(2(x+1)) = 1x
2. solve, x+1=x, 1=0
3. since this is impossible, there is no solution and zero answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ii) Perimeter = 8 + 7 + 17 + 16 + (17-8) + (16-7)
=8+ 7 + 17 +16 + 9 + 9
= 66 m
Area = area of upper rectangle + area of lower rectangle
= 8*7 + 16*9
= 56 + 144
= 200 m²
