Answer: There are eight steps and two methods. I will be showing you one of them. If you're wondering, I am in 7th grade. I go to K12 online school.
Step-by-step Explanation: 1. Add together the lengths of the bases. The bases are the 2 sides of the trapezoid that are parallel with one another. If you aren’t given the values for the base lengths, then use a ruler to measure each one. Add the 2 lengths together so you have 1 value.[1]
For example, if you find that the top base (b1) is 8 cm and the bottom base (b2) is 13 cm, the total length of the bases is 21 (8 cm + 13 cm = 21 cm, which reflects the "b = b1 + b2" part of the equation).
2. Measure the height of the trapezoid. The height of the trapezoid is the distance between the parallel bases. Draw a line between the bases, and use a ruler or other measuring device to find the distance. Write the height down so you don’t forget it later in your calculation.[2]
The length of the angled sides, or the legs of the trapezoid, is not the same as the height. The leg length is only the same as the height of the leg is perpendicular to the bases.
3. Multiply the total base length and height together. Take the sum of the base lengths you found (b) and the height (h) and multiply them together. Write the product in the appropriate square units for your problem.[3]
In this example, 21 cm x 7 cm = 147 cm2 which reflects the "(b)h" part of the equation.
4. Multiply the product by ½ to find the area of the trapezoid. You can either multiply the product by ½ or divide the product by 2 to get the final area of the trapezoid since the result will be the same. Make sure you label your final answer in square units.[4]
For this example, 147 cm2 / 2 = 73.5 cm2, which is the area (A).
In order to find what fraction describes this percentage, you first need to know that no matter what percentage you are working with, if you want to convert it into a fraction, put the 35 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator. If you still don't know what I mean, 35 at the top of the fraction and 100 at the bottom. Like this; 35/100. Then, you can simplify it by finding a common multiple between 35 and 100. For example, 5 can be divided into 35 and 100. 35 divided by 5 is 7 and 100 divided by 5 is 20. Your result is 7/20, which can further no more be simplified because there are no more common multiples between the two numbers.

Answer:
<P = 26 degrees
<N = 130 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of angle of a triangle is 180, hence
<M + <N + <P = 180
If the Measure of angle N is five times the Measure of angle P, then;
<N = 5<P
<M = 24 degrees
Substotute into the formula
24 + 5<P + <P = 180
24 + 6<P = 180
6<P = 180-24
6<P = 156
<P = 156/6
<P = 26 degrees
Since <N = 5<P
<N = 5(26)
<N = 130 degrees
Hence the measure of <P is 26 degrees and that of <N is 130 degrees
