Answer:

The answer is "32 and 48"

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the graph file in the attached file.

The perimeter is= sum of sides  

                           [tex]= 10+10+12 \\\\ =32 \ units\\\\[/tex]

Calculating the Area of base[tex]= \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height[/tex]

                                               [tex]= \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 8\\\\= \frac{1}{2} \times 96\\\\=48 \ units^2[/tex]
