Step 1
find the a<span>rea of the first cross section

area1=b1*h/2
b1=8 m
h=10 m
area1=6*10/2------> 30 m</span>²

step 2
find the area of the second cross section

area 2=b2*h/2
b2=12 m
h=10 m
area1=12*10/2------> 60 m²

step 3
 find <span>the difference in the areas of the cross sections
</span>difference=60-30------> 30 m²

the answer is
30 m²
