The longer base of a trapezoid is 8 ft. The longer base of a similar trapezoid is 13 ft. The area of the smaller trapezoid is 240 ft² What is the area of the larger trapezoid?

We solve the above question using proportion

(Longer base/Area of trapezoid) smaller trapezoid = (Longer base/Area of trapezoid) bigger trapezoid

Let the the Area of the bigger trapezoid = x

Hence,

= 8ft/240ft = 13ft/x ft

Cross Multiply

8ft × x = 240ft × 13ft

x = 240ft² × 12 ft/8 ft

x = 390 ft²
