Question

Help me find the area of a trapezoid using formula

Answer 1

The base for the trapezoid are,

`b_1=16`
`b_2=16`

and height is

`h=7`

Substitute the values in the formula to obtain the area of trapezoid.

`\begin{gathered} A=((12+16)/(2))\cdot7 \\ =(28)/(2)\cdot7 \\ =14\cdot7 \\ =98 \end{gathered}`
