OpenStudy (ashleyisakitty):

...yeah, there is nothing listed by the height.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, it's missing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height of just the triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The top base is 9 and the bottom base has 23, so 23 - 9 = 14. The height is 14, so that man the base leg of the 45-45-90 is 14 hope its correct lol

OpenStudy (ashleyisakitty):

Thanks. That is what I go as well. I believe the area is 224. Thank you very much.
