Answer:

The area of triangle VZX is 210 cm^2

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the measure of the area of triangle VZX

From the given diagram, we have two explicit triangles making up triangle VWX

These are triangles VWZ and VZX

By adding the areas of both triangles, we can get the area of VWX

Mathematically, the area of VZX is the difference between the area of VWX and VZW

To get the area of VZW, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle

We have this as 1/2 * base * height

base = 35 cm and height = 28 cm

The area of VWZ is 1/2 * 35 * 28 = 490 cm^2

The area of triangle VZX is thus;

700 cm^2 - 490 cm^2 = 210 cm^2
