Question

A trapezoid is shown: What is the area of the trapezoid?

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of trapezoid is:

162 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area(A) of trapezoid is given by:

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (sum\ of\ parallel\ sides)\times (Height)$

Here, we are given Height=9 cm

One parallel side=6 cm

Other parallel side=(12+6+12) cm

                              = 30 cm

Sum of parallel side=(6+30) cm

                                = 36 cm

Area=$\dfrac{1}{2}\times 36\times 9$

       = 162 cm²

Hence, Area of trapezoid is:

162 cm²

Answer 2

A = 1/2(6+30)(9)
A = 1/2(36)(9)
A = 162
answer
162 cm^2
