The area of a trapezoid, A, equals h, the height of the trapezoid, times the length of base one plus the length of base two divided by two.
The perimeter of a trapezoid, P, equals the measure of base one plus the measure of base two plus the measure of leg one plus the measure of leg two
That is as simple as i can make it lol. i hope it helps some

Answer:

Area of a trapezoid = $\frac{b_{1} +b_{2} }{2} h$

Perimeter of a trapezoid = All of the sides added together

Area: 32.5 m²

Perimeter: 26 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is base 1 + base 2 divided by 2, and then multiplied by the height.

The perimeter of all shapes is all of the sides added together.

Hope it helps!

Which expression is equivalent to cos(1.4x) − cos(0.6x)?

givi [52]

Answer:

A. -2sin(x)sin(0.4x)

Step-by-step explanation:

At x=0, the given expression evaluates to zero.

For x near zero, the given expression is slightly negative. You know this because cos(1.4x) decreases faster than cos(0.6x), so their difference will be negative.

Of the answer choices, you can eliminate C and D because they are not zero at x=0. You can eliminate choice B, because it is positive for values of x near zero. The only viable choice is A:

-2sin(x)sin(0.4x)

___

Of course, a graphing calculator can help you figure this out. See the attachment. The given expression is plotted using a solid red line; the answer choice A is plotted using blue dots.
