For the trapezoid, the equation used to solve for the area is,
A = (0.5)(b₁ + b₂)(h)
where b₁ and b₂ are the measure of the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values above,
1224 = (0.5)(70.5 + 65.5)(h)
h = 18
Thus, the height of the counter top is 18 inches.

A rectangular pool contains 920 cubic meters of water. the pool is .4 meter deep and 100 meters wide. How long is the pool?

Hi there,

Sol:
Length of the swimming pool = 260 m
Breadth of the swimming pool = 140 m

Let the height of the water in the swimming pool after pouring water be h meters.

Volume of the water poured = 54600 m3

l x b x h = 54600
260 x 140 x h = 54600
h = (54600) / (260 x 140)
h = 1.5 m = 150 cm

Hope it helps
