Question

Find the area of the following shapes:

Answer 1

Answer:

Area = 20 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

=> We know that;

Base 1: 3 units

Base 2: 7 units

Height: 4 units

=> Now let's come up with a congruent base first:

$\frac{(3 + 7)}{2}$ = final base

10/2 = final base

5 = final base

=> Finally, Area of the trapezoid:

A = Final Base * Height

A = 5 * 4

A = 20 square units

Hope this helps!
