Answer 1

It is 2 inches squared

Explanation:

I took the quiz and got it right.

Answer 2

The area of a trapezoid, A, is the average of the lengths of the bases (B and b) multiplied by the height, h.


`A = ((B + b)h)/(2)`


`A = ((3~in. + 1~in.) * 1~in.)/(2)`


`A = (4~in. * 1~in.)/(2)`


`A = (4~in.^2)/(2)`


`A = 2~in.^2`
