Question

Find the area of the figure ​

Answer 1

Answer:

22.23 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a trapezium and area can be calculated using the formula

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ h(a + b)

where h is the height and a, b the parallel bases

here h = 5.7, a = 5.9 and b = 1.9

A= 0.5 × 5.7(5.9 + 1.9) = 0.5 × 5.7 × 7.8 = 22.23 yd²

Answer 2

Answer:

22.3 is the answer

$\frac{a+b}{2}*h$ = $\frac{1.9+5.9}{2} *5.7 = \frac{7.8}{2} * 5.7 = 3.9 * 5.7 = 22.23$
