Question

What is the area? (IXL)

Answer 1

Answer:

45 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of trapezoid is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}(b1+b2)h$

where

b1 and b2 are the parallel bases

h is the height of trapezoid (perpendicular distance between the parallel bases)

we have

$b1=6\ m\\b2=9\ m\\h=6\ m$

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{2}(6+9)6$

$A=45\ m^2$
