Answer 1

Answer:

$\displaystyle 133\:square\:units$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}hb = A, \frac{1}{2}bh = A, or\: \frac{hb}{2} = A$

For the two legs, no matter what you do, you can either take half of 19 [9½] and multiply it by 14, take half of 14 [7] and multiply it by 19, or you could multiply both 14 and 19 [266] then take of that.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
