HEY GUYS HELP ME ON THIS ONE PLS DO IT FAST

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 72

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a trapezoid

$A= \frac{1}{2}h(b_{1} + b_2{} )$

First, we can add the bottom base together

5 + 8 + 3 = $16_{2}$

We know that the height of the trapezoid is 6 and base1 is 8

$A= \frac{1}{2}6(16 + 8)$

$A=\frac{1}{2}6(24)$

$A=3(24)$

$A=72$

OR

Find the area of the two triangles

$A=\frac{1}{2}5(6)\\\\A=5(3)\\\\A=15$$A=\frac{1}{2}3(6)\\\\A=3(3)\\\\A=9$

15 + 9 = 24

For the area of the rectangle

6 x 8 = 48

48 + 24 = 72
