Question

The bases of a trapezoid are 16.8 yards and 6.9 yards. If the height is 2 yards, what is the area of the trapezoid?

Answer 1

Hello,
Here is the formula to find the area of the trapezoid:
A=1/2(b1+b2)×h
Where b1 represent big base
b2 represent small base
and h represent height
Now, we just need to replace the number to get the final answer:
A=1/2(16.8+6.9)×2
A=1/2(23.7)×2
A=23.7 square yards. As a result, the area of the trapezoid is 23.7 square yards. Hope it help!
