A playground is designed by joining an isosceles triangular patch to one side of a parallelogram. The parallelogram has base 12 m12\,\text{m} and height 5 m5\,\text{m}. The triangular patch has sides 10 m,  10 m,  12 m10\,\text{m},\;10\,\text{m},\;12\,\text{m}, its 12 m12\,\text{m} side coinciding with the base of the parallelogram. What is the total area of the playground? a) 96 m296\,\text{m}^2 b) 120 m2120\,\text{m}^2 c) 108 m2108\,\text{m}^2 d) 156 m2156\,\text{m}^2
