Question

What is the area of figure ABCD?

104 square inches
120 square inches
136 square inches
168 square inches

Answer 1

The answer is option 2.

Explanation:

You have to use the formula of area of trapezium :

`area = (1)/(2) * (ab + cd) * bc`

Let AB be 13 inches,

Let CD be 17 inches,

Let BC be 8 inches,

`A = (1)/(2) * (13 + 17) * 8`

`= (1)/(2) *30 * 8`

`= (1)/(2) * 240`

`= 120 \: {inches}^(2)`

Answer 2

The answer to that question might seem difficult but the answer is actually 120 square inches
