Question

(I WILL RATE BRAINIEST)

Answer 1

Answer:

(a)

Shortest Side of the trapezoid =6 yds

Longest Side =8 yds

(b)42 Square Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

In the Trapezoid, Width =6 yd

Since the shortest side of the playground and its width have the same dimension, then:

• Shortest Side of the trapezoid =6 yd

• Longest Side =6+1+1=8 yd

Part B

Area of the Playground

In the trapezoid

a=6 yd, b=8 yd, h=Width=6 yd

Area of a trapezoid$=\frac{1}{2}(a+b)h$

$Therefore: Area=\frac{1}{2}(6+8)*6\\=14*3\\=42 Square Yards$
