Question

Find the area of the trapezoid

Answer 1

Answer:

42 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Each square on the grid is 2 units by 2 units.

Bases: OC = 10; SK = 4

Height: OS = 6

area = (b1 + b2)h/2

area = (10 + 4)(6)/2

area = 42

Answer: 42 square units

Answer 2

Answer:

The area of trapezoid is 42 square unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question

A trapezoid which is consist of many square shapes and each grid square equals 2 units . We need to find the area of trapezoid.

To calculate the area of trapezoid we have given :-

• Base ; SK = 4 and OC = 10
• Height ; OS = 6
• Formula for finding area of trapezoid is ½ × (Base 1 + Base 2) × Height .

Finding the area of trapezoid :-

Area of trapezoid = ½ × ( 4 + 10 ) × 6

• Add 4 and 10.

Area of trapezoid = ½ × 14 × 6

• Multiply 14 by 10.

Area of trapezoid = ½ × 84

• Divide by 2.

Area of trapezoid = 42

Hence,

The area of trapezoid is 42 square unit.
