7.81

use the formula a^2+b^2=c^2
put number in formula accordingly
5^2+6^2=c^2

solve: 25+36=61

find the square root of 61

answer is 7.81

Check the picture below.

let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions.

$\stackrel{mixed}{7\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{7\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{15}{2}} ~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{12\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{12\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{25}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\stackrel{\textit{\Large Areas}}{\stackrel{two~triangles}{2\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}\left(\cfrac{15}{2} \right)(10) \right]}~~ + ~~\stackrel{\textit{three rectangles}}{(10)(15)~~ + ~~\left( \cfrac{15}{2} \right)(15)~~ + ~~\left( \cfrac{25}{2} \right)(15)}} \\\\\\ 75~~ + ~~150~~ + ~~112.5~~ + ~~187.5\implies \boxed{525}$
