Question

A trapezoid is shown. The lengths of the bases are 4 and 8. The height of the altitude is 4. What is the area of the trapezoid?

Answer 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

The area of a Trapezoid is given as

A = (b1 + b2)*h/2

Givens

b1 = 8

b2 = 4

h = 4

Solution

Area = (8 + 4)*4/2

Area = 12*4/2

Area = 24

Answer 2

It would be 24 units^2 because the middle is 16 and the two triangles are 4 each
