Question

Find the areas of the trapezoids.

Answer 1

24sq²

Explanation:

Area = ( b1 + b2) x h

---------------------

2

Area = (8 + 4) x 6

---------------------

2

Area = (12) x 6

---------------------

2

A = 72/2

A = 36

A = 1/2 * b * h

A = (1/2) * 4 * 6

A = (1/2) * 24

A = 12

36 - 12 = 24sq²

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Area = ½* height(a+b)

Where;

a=4units

b=8units

h=6units

Therefore Area= ½*6(4+8)

= ½*6*12
