Question

The trapezoid is composed of a rectangle and two triangles. What is the area of the rectangle? What is the total area of the triangles? What is the area of the trapezoid?
A)
48 cm2; 32 cm2; 80 cm 2


B)
48 cm2; 16 cm2; 64 cm 2


C)
128 cm2; 32 cm2; 160 cm 2


D)
128 cm2; 16 cm2; 144 cm 2

Answer 1

The area of rectangle
$8 \times 16 = 128$

the area of total triangles
$2( \frac{4 \times 8}{2} ) = 32$


the area of the trapezoid
$128 + 32 = 160$


so C is true
