HELP ASAPThe pentagon ABCDE is graphed on a coordinate plane with vertices A(0, 0), B(3, 5), C(3, 8), D(8, 5), and E(8, 0). What is the pentagon's area? 15 sq. units 40 sq. units 25 sq. units 55 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

C(-5,9), and D(5, 4)

Slope  = y₂ - y₁/ x₂-x₁

    m1 = 4 - 9 / 5- [-5]

         = -5 / 5+5  = -5/10 = -1/2

    m1 = -1/2

A(x, 1), B(-3,7)

Slope of AB m2 =  7- 1 / -3 - x  = 6/ -3-x

As AB  || CD, m2 = m1

                  6/-3-x = -1/2

                  6*2      = -1 * (-3-x)        {cross multiplication}

                          12 = (-1 * -3) - x * -1

                 3 + x = 12

                       x = 12 - 3

                       x = 9
