Question

What Is the area of this trapezoid?

Answer 1

Answer:

120 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated using the formula

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

where h is the height and a, b the parallel bases

here h = 6, a = 15 and b = 25, hence

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 6 × (15 + 25)

   = 3 × 40 = 120 in²
