Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing sides measurement.

x+x+28=52

combine like terms

2x + 28 = 52

subtract 28 from both sides

2x + 28 = 52

     - 28  - 28

2x = 24

divide both sides by 2

x = 12

plug it back in

one leg is 12 inches

the other leg is 40 inches

A trapezoid has an area of 24 square meters. The lengths of the bases of the trapezoid are 5 meters and 7 meters. What is the he
Maurinko [17]

The area of any trapezoid is

                      Area = (1/2) x (height) x (one base + the other base) .

Take that formula and write in the numbers you know:

                 (24 m²) = (1/2) x (height) x (5m + 7m)

                 (24 m²) =  (6m) x (height)

Divide each side by  6m :

                 Height = (24 m² / 6m) 

                            =     4 m .
