Right triangle is therefore 8/5/2

Area of each triangle is 5
5x12= area of square

Applied Math fag & engineer here.
The Trapezoid is a trap. It cannot exist. This is because we know the geometry of it has to have the top and bottom parallel, that's a given (you assume it when finding the area of the rectangle)
Well, problem is that means both triangles are the same. Sorry newfag, but that also means each triangle has a "base"=2 (because the bottom of the Trapezoid = 16 = "base" +12 + "base")
This means the "base" of the triangle is 2. The triangle can't possibly have a base of 2 violates Pythagorean 2 != root(39).
>>678914617
TL;DR the object doesn't actually fucking exist lol lrn2geometry
8^2 - 5^2 = 39
square root of 39 = 6.244997998398398
6.244997998398398 * 2 = 12.4899959967968
5 * 12 = 60
60 + 12.4899959967968 = 72.4899959967968
Answer: 72.489

childrens common core math problems are very often not drawn to scale. it is about having the child prove he/she can manipulate data drawn from a model to generate an equation and answer.

Love that 5-8-16 triangle.
Ever heard of the triangle inequality? This is why.
>>678908967
The trap is in thinking the "object" is a trapezoid just because that's what some faggot named the image. The problem never calls it a trapezoid, there are no geometry marks to indicate the sides are parallel, even the altitude line for the triangle is only implied to be perpendicular to the longest side, no mark for being perpendicular is given either.
>>678925746
nah no thanks
>>678925579
This anon knows what he's talking about.
Engineer here, assuming that we're ignoring ASME drawing standards and requiring notation on everything, the original drawing is underdefined so the best you can give is the range of possibilities you get from rotating the 5 in relation to the 16 side.
So unless it's stated that lines drawn parallel are parallel, and right angles drawn to look like them actually are, this problem doesn't have a single answer.
>>678926015
Correct. It is unsolvable.
>>678925962
Are you fucking retarded? The place where the 5 line touches the 16 line is not an endpoint of the 16 line, fucktard.
