#### Geometry Problem

**Problem Statement:**

1. The figure below is NOT drawn to scale. You are given that \( a = 9 \, \text{cm}, \, b = 11 \, \text{cm}, \, c = 18 \, \text{cm}, \, d = 12 \, \text{cm},\) and \( f = 8 \, \text{cm} \).

#### Diagram Explanation:
- The diagram is a trapezoid with non-parallel sides labeled as \( a, b, c, d, \) and \( e \). 
- A line \( f \) is drawn perpendicular to \( a \) and ends on \( c \), representing a height from the base \( a \) to the opposite side \( c \).

**Questions:**

(a) *Find the perimeter of this figure. Round your final answer to two decimal places (if needed).*

(b) *Find the area of this figure. Round your final answer to two decimal places (if needed).*
