21 The diagram shows an 8-sided shape \(ABCDEFGH\).

Diagram NOT accurately drawn
\(HG = 28\) cm \(FG = 12\) cm \(AB = EF = 5\) cm
The height of the shape is 20 cm
\(CD\) is parallel to \(HG\)
The area of shape \(ABCDEFGH\) is 434 cm\(^2\)
Find the length of \(CD\).

Notes
M1: For a correct method to find the area of a rectangle (may be seen as part calculation) or a correct expression for the area of the trapezium with numbers substituted.
Allow for other correct method to find area linked to this shape.
M1: correct use of their values from correct working for an equation involving \(CD\) (\(CD\) could be labelled with any letter)
M1: a correct process to solve a correct equation or a correct process to find \(CD\) using correct values
A1: oe
