The first part of solving the area is multiplying the rectangle. So you do 15*18 which is 270. Then to solve a triangle you make it a square/rectangle. So it would be 8*15 which is 120. Because the length is the length of the rectangle and the width is shown on top. Then because it’s a rectangle not a triangle you divide by 2 because you were adding half to it when you were making it a rectangle. So it’s 120/2 which is 60. And 270+60 is 330. So the area is 330. To get the perimeter you add all the sides together. And because one of the sides is not added but half of the bottom line is the same length as the top so it would be 18+ the 8 on the top which is 26. So 15+18+17+26 is 76. So the perimeter is 76
15 squared is 225 then you subtract the square of 12.2: 148.84, then after you find that out, you find the square root of 76.16 since that's what the answer of 15 squared minus 12.2 squared, and the answer is 8.7
