Question

A trapezoid has 9.2 inches base and 3.5 inches base, as well as 17 inches height. What is the area?

Answer 1

107.95$in^{2}$


The area of a trapezoid is as follows: 

A = $\frac{a + b}{2} h$

A and B are the lengths of the parallel lines of trapezoids. The parallel lines in this problem are 3.5 and 9.2. After adding those and dividing by 2, we multiply 17 to find the area of the trapezoid. (This is also shown in the attached picture)
