Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the height = 6 units
You will need to use the Pythagorean theorem TWICE to find the two segments of the base
L segment
7^2 = 6^2 + L^2
L = sqrt13 units
R segment
8^2 = 6^2 + R^2
R = sqrt 28 units
then 1/2 base * height becomes
1/2 * ( sqrt(13) + sqrt(28) ) * 6 = 26.7 units^2 <=====area
