Question

A country is shaped like a trapezoid. It's northern border is about 9.6 miles across,and the southern border is approximately 25 miles across. The distance from the southern border to the nourthern border is about 90 miles. What is th approximate area?

Answer 1

The area of the trapezoid is calculated through the equation,
                       A = 0.5(b₁ + b₂)h
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given,
                       A = 0.5(9.6 + 25)(90) = 1557 mi²
Therefore, the approximate area of the country is 1557 mi².
