You need the Law of Cosines here and you use it when you have 2 sides and an enclosed angle. The side across from the angle is the one we are looking for. The correct way to express the Law using what we have is the last choice above. Side RT is the unknown, and it is across from the angle that is enclosed between the 2 other sides.

The area of the trapezoid is calculated through the equation,
A = ((b₁ + b₂)/2) x h
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given above,
504 = ((18 + 30)/2) x h
The value of h from the equation is 21. Thus, Molly must make the trapezoid 21 inches high.
If you take the inverse of the function f (x) =2x+1 you should get h (x)=1/2x+1/2
