Question

a field in the shape of a trapezoid has an area of 13,687.5 square yards .the length of one base is 150yards, and the lenght of the other base is 215 yards. what is the height?

Answer 1

$A=\frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h=13687.5\\\frac{1}{2}((150)+(215))h=13687.5\\(365)h=27375\\h=75$

h = 75 yards.
