Question

What is the area of the trapezoid shown below?



The trapezoid has two bases. Base one is labeled fifteen feet. Base two is labeled ten feet. The height of the trapezoid is labeled eight feet.


200 ft2

150 ft2

120 ft2

100 ft2

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area formula for a trapezoid would be b1+b2/2*height

So, 15+10/2*8

15+10=25

25/2= 12.5

12.5x8= 100 ft2

Therefore, Area equals 100 ft2

Answer 2

Answer:

100 ft.^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A =  a+b ÷ 2 • h

A = 15 + 10 ÷ 2 • h

A = 25 ÷ 2 • 8

100 = 25 ÷ 2 • 8
