Answer:
Area of trapezoidal base = 4 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that volume of a prism is known as :
where <em>B</em> is Area of Base
and <em>h</em> is Height of prism
NOTE: Formula for Volume of a prism can be generalized as above irrespective of the type of base it has (base can be of type triangle, rectangle, square or trapezoidal etc).
Here, we are given that Base is trapezoidal.
<em>h</em> is 6 units and
Volume <em>V</em> is 24 cubic units.
And we have to find out the value of B.
Putting the above values in above formula:
Hence, area of trapezoidal base = 4 square units.
