Question

An isosceles trapezoid has base lengths 3.4 and 5.8. With the area of 7.36. What is the height and perimeter of the trapezoid.

Answer 1

Height (h) = 1.6

Explanation:

Area of trapezoid = [(base1+base2)/2] * height

now we sub the values in the formula

7.36 = [(3.4+5.8)/2]* h

h= (7.36*2)/(3.4+5.8)

h = 1.6
