Question

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A = h(b1 + b2), where A = area, h = height, b1 = base 1, and b2 = base 2. For a trapezoid with a height of 7 centimeters and base lengths of 6 centimeters and 10 centimeters, the area is square centimeters

Answer 1

A= H( B1 + B2) A= 7( 6+10). 10+6=16, 16 times 7 eaquals 112 centimeters squared.

Answer 2

The area of the trapezoid is A= 56
