Question

PLS HELP NEED IT BADLY

Answer 1

68 square centimeters.

Explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is calculated using the following formula:

`\sf Area = (1)/(2) * \textsf{ (Base 1 + Base 2) }* Height`

Where:

• Base 1 is the length of the first base of the trapezoid
• Base 2 is the length of the second base of the trapezoid
• Height is the distance between the parallel bases of the trapezoid

In this case:

we have:

• Base 1 = 11 cm
• Base 2 = 6 cm
• Height = 8 cm

Now,

Substitute the value, we get

`\sf Area = (1)/(2) * (11 cm + 6 cm)* 8 cm`

While calculating, we get

`\sf Area = 17cm* 4`

`\sf Area = 68 cm^2`

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 68 square centimeters.
