Question

Find the area of the trapezoids

Answer 1

Answer:

48 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Each square on the grid is 2 units by 2 units.

Bases: AT = 8; RS = 4

Height: 8

area = (b1 + b2)h/2

area = (8 + 4)(8)/2

area = 48 square units

Answer 2

Answer:

The area of trapezoid is 48 sq units.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

➻ Trapezoid is consist of many square shapes. Each grid square equals 2 units. We need to find the area of trapezoid.

➻ To find area we need to find the length if base and height of trapezoid.

Calculate the square grids to find base and height. we get.

Base ; SR = 4 units and TA = 8units

Height = 8 units.

Finding the area of trapezoid.

We know that,

Area of trapezoid = ( Base1 + Base2 ) ×Height / 2

plug the values of both base and a height.

Area of trapezoid = ( 4 + 8 ) × 8 / 2

Add the numbers which are in bracket and multiply by 8.

Area of trapezoid = 12 × 8 / 2 = 96/2

Divide 96 by 2.

Area of trapezoid = 48 sq units.

Hence,

The area of trapezoid is 48 sq units.
