Since the shape is a square the sides are equal. Then we need to find x such that x * x = 169.
Sqrt(169) = 13
So x = 13
20 = 8 + v equals v = 12.
First, subtract 8 from both sides. Your problem should look like: 20 - 8 = v
Second, simplify 20 - 8 to get 12. Your problem should look like: 12 = v.
Third, switch sides to get v = 12, which is the correct answer.
There’s probably an easier way to do it like with the equation to find the area of a trapezoid but i did it this way bc it’s easier for me
i split the trapezoid into a triangle and a square
with the pythagorean theorem i found the missing side length to find the area of the square (length X width)
then found the area of the triangle (base X height divided by 2)
