Answer:

A is the answer  

12 in

first substitute the variables

then 78=1/2h(5 + 8)

this makes it an equation

add similar terms which equals to

78=1/2xhx13

then divide both sides by 13

6=1/2xh

lastly divide both sides by 1/2

12=h

Step-by-step explanation:

proof

A=1/2x12(5 + 8) then

A=1/2x12x13  then

   A=6x13  then

       A= 78in^2
