Answer 1

Answer: 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2 (base1 + base2) X height <-------- Formula for a trapezoid

24 = 1/2 (2 + 6) X h <----- We know that the area of the trapezoid is 24 units

squared and that both of the bases are 2 units and 6 units.

24 = 1/2 (8) X h <------- Add 6 + 2

24 = 4 X h <-----  Half of 8 is 4

h = 6 <------  6 X 4 = 24 , therefore the height is 6 units.

Hope this helps!
