Question

What is the area of the trapezoid below?

Answer 1

The formula to find the area of a trapezoid is:
$A= \frac{a+b}{2} h$
Let's plug in the values.
$A= \frac{11+7}{2} *8$
Our answer would be:
$A=72$

This means that the area should be 72 cm squared. We could represent this as $72 cm^2$
Since we have to divide 72 by 2, our answer would be 36. The answer would be A!
Let me know if you have any questions.
