Question

What is the area of a trapezoid?

Answer 1

The area of this trapezoid is 375 $inches^{2}$

The formula to find the area of a trapezoid is: $A= \frac{a+b}{2} h$

A = Area
a & b = the base lengths
h = height length

Using this, with the given variables, we can plug our formula in and work it out.

$A= \frac{10+40}{2}15$.................................Simplify 10+40 to 50

$A= \frac{50}{2}15$.......................................Simplify $\frac{50}{2}$ to 25

$A=25*15$...................................Multiply $25*15$

$A = 375$..........................................Final answer
