To find the area of a trapezoid, start by adding together the length of the bases, which are the 2 sides of the trapezoid that are parallel with each other. Then, multiply that number by the height of the trapezoid. Finish by dividing the product by 2 to find the area.
According to the trapezoid area formula, the area of a trapezoid is equal to half the product of the height and the sum of the two bases. Area = ½ x (Sum of parallel sides) x (perpendicular distance between the parallel sides). Where h is the height and b1, and b2 are the parallel sides of the trapezoid.
After discovery of the South America by Columbus,there were influx of people from Europe to America,displacing the Indians inhabitant of their lands,the Indian population decreased drastically resulting in importing slaves from Africa to help in their plantation
A geothermal power plant is the alternative energy generation technology that requires burning fossil fuels to start generating electricity.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A geothermal power plant derives its energy from the steam or from the heated up water that is present deep inside the surface of the Earth at some locations.
The presence of steam or hot water at such locations is due to the heat available in the interiors of Earth.
This heat is partially generated from the burning of fossil fuels that are present deep inside the Earth.
