Question

Find the area of the shape shown below. I NEED HELP NOWWWWWW

Answer 1

Answer:

12.5 units${}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given figure : Trapezoid

Base sides,

a = 2.5

b = 7.5

Height ( h ) = 2.5

Now, finding the area:

$\frac{1}{2} (a + b) \times h$

Plug the values

$= \frac{1}{2 } \times (2.5 + 7.5) \times 2.5$

Calculate the sum

$= \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 2.5$

Reduce the numbers with G.C.F 2

$= 5 \times 2.5$

Calculate the product

$12.5 \: \: {units}^{2}$

Hope this helps...

Best regards!
