Answer:

[tex]A=84.00\ units^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the length side MU (height of triangle DUO)

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

In this problem

Triangle DMU is similar to Triangle DPA by AA Similarity Theorem

because

∠DMU=∠DPA

∠MDU=∠PDA

Applying proportion

[tex]\frac{DM}{DP}=\frac{MU}{PA}[/tex]

substitute the given values

[tex]\frac{10.0}{3.75}=\frac{MU}{4.5}[/tex]

solve for MU

[tex]MU=\frac{10.0}{3.75}(4.5)[/tex]

[tex]MU=12\ units[/tex]

step 2

Find the area of triangle DUO

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} (OD)(MU)[/tex]

substitute

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} (4.0+10.0)(12)[/tex]

[tex]A=84.00\ units^2[/tex]
