Question

The top of a table is in the shape of a trapezoid. It has a height 1.5 feet and the two parallel bases measure 3 feet and 5 feet. What is the area of the top of the table? A = 1 2 (b1 + b2)h A = 1 2 (3 + 5)(1.5) A = 1 2 (8)(1.5) The area of the tabletop is:

Answer 1

Answer:

B=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The area of a trapezoid if found using the formula

A = (base1 + base2)/2 x height

Area = (3+5)/2 x 1.5

Area = 8/2 x 1.5

Area = 4 x 1.5

Area = 6 square feet.
