I don’t see the figure — could you upload or describe it? With only the two numbers (12 in and 13 in) there are several possible interpretations; here are the common ones and how to get each area:
- If the figure is a rectangle with sides 12 in and 13 in:
Area = 12 × 13 = 156 in².
- If the figure is a triangle with base 13 in and height 12 in:
Area = (1/2) × base × height = 0.5 × 13 × 12 = 78 in².
- If the figure is a right triangle whose hypotenuse is 13 in and one leg is 12 in (13–5–12 Pythagorean triple):
other leg = sqrt(13² − 12²) = 5 in, so
Area = (1/2) × 12 × 5 = 30 in².
If you upload the figure or tell me which shape and which sides those labels refer to, I’ll give the exact area and show the steps.
