1/2 (a+b)h
1/2 (a+16)14=132
8×14=112
14÷2=7
132-112=20
20÷7 =2.857142857
so then a= 2.86 (3sf)

Answer:
x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using completing the square method
x²+9x+2=0
x²+9x = -2 (complete the square by adding (9/2)² to both sides)
x²+9x + (9/2)² = -2 + (9/2)²
( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (9/2)²
( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (81/4)
( x + (9/2) )² = 73/4
x + (9/2) = ± √(73/4)
x + (9/2) = ± √(73) / 2
x = -(9/2) ± √(73) / 2 (factorize out (1/2) )
x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)
Triangle ABE is similar to triangle CED (AAA)
10/8 = (2x+6) / (x+6)
x=2
therefore AE = 2(2) + 6
