Question

Find the area of this trapezoid. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer. Explanation Check 13 m 11 m 6 m 12 m 0 010 E X 08 m² 5 m³ ?

Answer 1

Given:

The sides of trapezoid are

$\begin{gathered} a=11m \\ b=6m \\ h=12m \end{gathered}$

Required:

To find the area of the trapezoid.

Explanation:

The formula for area of trapezoid is

$A=\frac{1}{2}(a+b)h$

Here

$\begin{gathered} A=\frac{1}{2}(11+6)12 \\ \\ =\frac{1}{2}(17)(12) \\ \\ =17\times6 \\ \\ =102m^2 \end{gathered}$

Final Answer:

The area of the given trapezoid is 102 square meters.
