Explanation:

We need to think about this trapezoid as one square and one triangle. So there's a 9 x 12 square, and a 9 x 6 triangle.

So to find the area, we find the area of both shapes and add them together.

9 * 12 + 1/2 * 9 * 6

108 + 27

135 ft^2

To find the perimeter, all we need to do is add the sides together:

9 + 18 + 12 + 11 = 50 ft

Answer:

Perimeter: 135 ft^2

Area: 50 ft
