Question

A trapezoid has a bases 15.5 cm and 22.5 cm. The area of the trapezoid is 361 m². What is the height of the trapezoid?

Answer 1

The answer is 1900m

Answer 2

Area = [(15.5 + 22.5) / 2] * height
Area = [(15.5 + 22.5) / 2] * height
height = 361 / [(15.5 + 22.5) / 2]
height = 361 / 19
height = 19
