Answer: There are eight steps and two methods. I will be showing you one of them. If you're wondering, I am in 7th grade. I go to K12 online school.
Step-by-step Explanation: 1. Add together the lengths of the bases. The bases are the 2 sides of the trapezoid that are parallel with one another. If you aren’t given the values for the base lengths, then use a ruler to measure each one. Add the 2 lengths together so you have 1 value.[1]
For example, if you find that the top base (b1) is 8 cm and the bottom base (b2) is 13 cm, the total length of the bases is 21 (8 cm + 13 cm = 21 cm, which reflects the "b = b1 + b2" part of the equation).
2. Measure the height of the trapezoid. The height of the trapezoid is the distance between the parallel bases. Draw a line between the bases, and use a ruler or other measuring device to find the distance. Write the height down so you don’t forget it later in your calculation.[2]
The length of the angled sides, or the legs of the trapezoid, is not the same as the height. The leg length is only the same as the height of the leg is perpendicular to the bases.
3. Multiply the total base length and height together. Take the sum of the base lengths you found (b) and the height (h) and multiply them together. Write the product in the appropriate square units for your problem.[3]
In this example, 21 cm x 7 cm = 147 cm2 which reflects the "(b)h" part of the equation.
4. Multiply the product by ½ to find the area of the trapezoid. You can either multiply the product by ½ or divide the product by 2 to get the final area of the trapezoid since the result will be the same. Make sure you label your final answer in square units.[4]
For this example, 147 cm2 / 2 = 73.5 cm2, which is the area (A).

Answer:
0.3811 = 38.11% probability that he weighs between 170 and 220 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
![Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BX%20-%20%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D)
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
![\mu = 200, \sigma = 50](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmu%20%3D%20200%2C%20%5Csigma%20%3D%2050)
Find the probability that he weighs between 170 and 220 pounds.
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 220 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 170.
X = 220
![Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BX%20-%20%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D)
![Z = \frac{220 - 200}{50}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B220%20-%20200%7D%7B50%7D)
![Z = 0.4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%200.4)
has a pvalue of 0.6554
X = 170
![Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BX%20-%20%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D)
![Z = \frac{170 - 200}{50}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B170%20-%20200%7D%7B50%7D)
![Z = -0.6](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20-0.6)
has a pvalue of 0.2743
0.6554 - 0.2743 = 0.3811
0.3811 = 38.11% probability that he weighs between 170 and 220 pounds.
