Answer:
(a)
Shortest Side of the trapezoid =6 yds
Longest Side =8 yds
(b)42 Square Yards
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part A</u>
In the Trapezoid, Width =6 yd
Since the shortest side of the playground and its width have the same dimension, then:
- Shortest Side of the trapezoid =6 yd
 
<u>Part B</u>
Area of the Playground
In the trapezoid
a=6 yd, b=8 yd, h=Width=6 yd
Area of a trapezoid

Answer:
96 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  Please have a look at the attached photo. 
My answer: 
- The length of the large rectangle is: 5 
 - The width of the large rectangle is: 7
 
=> Area of the large rectangle = length × width  = 7*5 = 35 square units 
- The length of the middle rectangle is: 7
 - The width of the middle rectangle is: 4
 
=> Area of the middle rectangle = length × width  = 7*4 = 28 square units 
- The length of the small rectangle is: 7
 - The width of the small rectangle is: 3             
 
=> Area of the small rectangle = length × width  = 7*3 = 21 square units
Area of top and the bottom triangles =2* 
  
  
Total surface area = 35 + 28 + 21 + 12 = 96 square units
