Pls Help asap thx alot ​

52.5cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Firs, you have to split this composite shape into two separate shapes; a rectangle and triangle.

To work out the area of the rectangle you would have to do 8x5=40.

To work out the area you would have to find out the height of it first. So, to do this you would have to do 1+2=3 then do 8-3=5. Now we know the height is 5.

Then you have to use the formula base times height divided by 2 (b×h/2). So 5×5=25 then 25÷2=12.5

To then find the total area of this composite shape you would have to add the two areas together. So 40+12.5=52.5cm²

Hope this helps :)

your answer would be 10x - 1

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
