Question

Answer ASAP Find the area

Answer 1

In this problem, you are asked to find the area of the trapezoid. The formula in finding the area of the trapezoid is:

A = [(a + b)/2] x h

Where a = base 1

             b = base 2

             h = height

Substituting the given measurements to the formula:

A = [(1.7 m + 6.7 m) / 2] x 5 m

A = (8.4 m / 2) x 5 m

A = 4.2 m x 5 m

A = 21 m^2

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 21 square meters.
