Answer:

11 and 88

Explanation:

If one side measures 8, that means that another one does.

8 + 8 = 16

38 = 16 + 2n

Subtract 16:

22 = 2n

11 = n

So the missing sides are
\boxed{11} each

If the sides are 11 and 8, the area will be 11 × 8.

11 × 8 = 88

Thus, the area is
\boxed{88}.

Check:

11 + 11 + 8 + 8 = 22 + 16 = 38.

So we are correct.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

8 on the left and right sides, 15 on the top and bottom.

Explanation:

If 8 is on one side, it is also on the other side.

38 - 8 = 30

30 ÷ 2 = 15
