The area of the trapezoid, to the nearest whole number is: D. 8 units²
<h3>What is the Area of a Trapezoid?</h3>Area of trapezoid = 1/2(a + b)h, where:
- h = height of trapezoid
- a and b = lengths of the bases of the trapezoid.
Using the coordinates of the trapezoid, (0,0), (1,3), (4,3), (2,0), the points have been plotted on a coordinate plane as shown in the image attached below, and we have the following dimensions of the trapezoid:
- h = 3 units
- a = 3 units
- b = 2 units
Area of the trapezoid = 1/2(a + b)h = 1/2(3 + 2)3
Area of the trapezoid = 7.5 ≈ 8 units²
