Answer 1

Formula of a trapezoid:

Base 1 + Base 2 x H x 1/2

In this case:

Base 1 (6) + Base 2 (16) x Height (9) x 1/2

= 99

Answer 2

99

Explanation:

The following figure is a trapezoid with the following dimensions

Height = 9ft

Shorter Base Length = 6ft

Longer Base Length = 16ft

The area of a trapezoid can be found using this formula

`A=(a+b)/(2)h`

where a and b = bases and h = height

Given all the information needed we plug in the values into the formula

`A=(6+16)/(2) 9\\6+16=22\\(22)/(2) =11\\11*9=99\\A=99ft^2`

So we can conclude that the area of the trapezoid is 99 ft²
