Answer:

151 cm² (i don't know what unit you were given so im going to use cm)

Explanation:

Part One: finding the missing side (h)

h = a² = b² + c²

13² = 12² + c²

169 = 144 + c²

169 - 145 = c²

= 25

square root of 25 = c

5 = c

area of top triangular area = ½ b × h

= ½ × 12 × 5

= 30 cm²

Part Two

area of rectangle = l × b

= 12 × 8

= 96 cm²

Part Three

area of square = l × l

= 5 × 5

= 25 cm²

total surface area = (30 + 96 + 25) cm²

= 151 cm²
