Answer:

63.966

Explanation:

Area of a kite is


(pq)/(2)

where p and q are the diagonals.

The horinzontial diagonal is 8.

We need to find the vertical diagonal length.

The top triangle diagonal measure is


{4}^(2) + {x}^(2) = {7}^(2)


16 + {x}^(2) = 49


{x}^(2) = 33


x = √(33)

The bottom triangle diagonal measure is


{4}^(2) + {x}^(2) = {11}^(2)


1 6 + {x}^(2) = 121


{x}^(2) = 105


x = √(105)

Add the two diagonals.


√(105) + √(33)

Substitute this in for the formula


(8 * ( √(105) + √(33) )/(2)

Which simplified gu

Ives us


63.966

Round if neededd.
