Answer:

12 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as

A = \frac{1}{2} h(b₁ + b₂ )

where h is the height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases

Given h = 6, b₁ = 8 and A = 60 , then

\frac{1}{2} × 6 × (8 + b₂ ) = 60 , that is

3(8 + b₂ ) = 60 ( divide both sides by 3 )

8 + b₂ = 20 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

b₂ = 12

The length of the second base is 12 inches
