In this question it is given that the values of CD and CE are 20 and 32 respectively.

Since the length of CE is greater then of CD, so C and D could not be the end points.

Therefore, either D and E are the endpoints or C and E are the endpoints.

If D and E are the endpoints, then DE is the sum of 20 and 32 which is 52.

And if C and E are the endpoints, then DE is the difference of CE and CD that is 12.

So the possible values of DE are 12 and 52.

Answer:

31.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate area of a triangle with this formula:

Area = $\frac{1}{2}$ base * height

Substitute in known values

Area = $\frac{1}{2}$ 7 * 9

Multiply 7 by 1/2

Area = 3.5 * 9
