Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

AB and DC are parallel to each other, so they are the same length. Set their lengths equal to each other and solve for x

4x = 7x - 9

4x - 7x = 7x - 7x -9

-3x = -9

-3x/-3 = -9/-3

x = 3

Now solve for AB.

AB = 4x

AB = 4(3)

AB = 12

Answer:

The horizontal value in a pair of coordinates: how far along the point is. The X Coordinate is always written first in an ordered pair of coordinates (x,y), such as (12,5). In this example, the value "12" is the X Coordinate. Also called "Abscissa"

BSE ~ TES

Now,

BS = TE (:• being corresponding side )

BSE = TES (:• Being Corresponding angle

SE = SE (:•Being corresponding side)

Therefore,

This polygon is composed of a right triangle and a parallelogram.

The area of right angle :
$A_\Delta=\frac{1}{2}\cdot15\cdot8=\frac{1}{2}\cdot120=\boxed{60\ (cm^2)}$

The area of the parallelogram:
$A_P=15\cdot(13-8)=15\cdot5=\boxed{75\ (cm^2)}$

The area of the polygon is equal: $A=A_\Delta+A_P$

Therefore, the answer is:
$\boxed{\boxed{A=60\ cm^2+75\ cm^2=135\ cm^2}}$
