A trapezoid can be seen as a rectangle with a triangle split in half. the largest area that a triangle can make with two sides of 6 would be a right triangle, which means that the last side is 6* square root of 2. 
The rectangle will have two sides of size 6 guaranteed. therefore, the last side would be a side of length 6+6*sqrt 2
