Answer:
perimeter = 12 + √74
area = 17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
See the drawing below.
This is a right triangle.
The legs have lengths 5 and 7.
We can find the length of the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean Theorem.
5² + 7² = e²
e² = 74
e = √74
perimeter = 5 + 7 + √74
perimeter = 12 + √74
area = bh/2
area = 5 × 7/2
area = 17.5
