Help pls! Gotta be done before I go to work :((

Answer 1

A = 104 ft²

Explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated as

A =
`(1)/(2)` h (b₁ + b₂ )

where h is the perpendicular height and b₁, b₂ are the parallel bases

Here h = 8, b₁ = 10 + 6 = 16, b₂ = 10 , then

A =
`(1)/(2)` × 8 × (16 + 10) = 4 × 26 = 104 ft²
