If we don't know the value, we may set a variable to show it. In this case, the height. Let's take it as
h. In the right triangle, the base is equal to
11-7=4\textrm{ in}, so the Pythagorean theorem here shows
{h}^(2)+{4}^(2)={5}^(2)\Longrightarrow h=3\textrm{ in}.

What's the area? It is
(1)/(2)*(7+11)h=27\textrm{ in${}^(2)$}, so it's done!
