Question

What is the area of the trapezoid with height 10 units?

Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

To find the area of a trapezoid, you need to add the top and the bottom measurements together.

In this case, 12 + 12 = 24
24 + 5 = 29

Then add the top with the bottom and divide by 2.

29 + 5 = 34

34/2 = 17

Then you multiply by the height. In this case 10.

17 x 10 = 170

The area of the trapezoid is 170 units.
