Answer:

Area of the shape=241.2cm^2

Perimeter of the shape=76.08cm

Explanation:

Find the base for the first triangle = tan(75°)=O/A

= A=30/tan(75°)

=A = 8.04cm (2decimal place)

Area of first triangle= 1/2×Base×height

=1/2×8.04cm×30cm

=120.6cm^2

So total area for the shape is = 2×120.6cm^2

=241.2cm^2

Perimeter of the shape = 2(30cm+8.04cm)

=76.08cm
