Question

PLEASE HELP ON THIS, Find the area of the shape shown below.

Answer 1

Answer:

$A=42 u^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a trapezoid.

The area of a trapezoid is defined as

$A=\frac{1}{2}(b+B)h$

Where $b=1, B=6, h=12$

Replacing each value, we have

$A=\frac{1}{2}(1+6)(12)\\A=42u^{2}$

Therefore, of the shape shows in the image attached is $A=42 u^{2}$

Answer 2

Because this shape has 2 right angles, we can confirm that it has one set of parallel sides and is a trapezoid. Therefore, use the formula for area of a trapezoid, .5(b1+b2)(h)
.5(1+6)(12)
.5(7)(12)
42 units^2
