Question

Find the area of the trapezoid

Answer 1

Area of the trapezoid = 1/2(b1 + b2) h

b1 = top base
b2 = bottom base
h =  height

so
A = 1/2(20 + 25)(15)
A = 1/2(45)(15)
A = 337.5

answer
B. 337.5 ft^2

Answer 2

Hello!

To find the area of a trapezoid you use the equation

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

A is area
a and b are the base length
h is height

Put in the values you know

$A = \frac{20 + 25}{2} * 15$

Add

$A = \frac{45}{2} * 15$

Divide

$A = 22.5 * 15$

Multiply

A = 337.5

The answer is B) 337.5 ft squared

Hope this helps!
