Question

Find the area of a trapezoid which has a measure of 7 meters for its height and 4 meters and 6 meters for its two bases.

Answer 1

$\text{ area = }\frac{(\text{ a + b\rparen}}{2}\times\text{ h }$

Where

a = long base

b = short base

h = height

$\text{ area = }\frac{(\text{6 m + 4 m\rparen}}{2}\times7\text{ m = 35 m}^2$

The answer is 35 m2
