Question

Find the area of the shape shown below. I NEED HELP NOWWWWWW

Answer 1

12.5 units
`{}^(2)`

Explanation:

Given figure : Trapezoid

Base sides,

a = 2.5

b = 7.5

Height ( h ) = 2.5

Now, finding the area:

`(1)/(2) (a + b) * h`

Plug the values

`= (1)/(2 ) * (2.5 + 7.5) * 2.5`

Calculate the sum

`= (1)/(2) * 10 * 2.5`

Reduce the numbers with G.C.F 2

`= 5 * 2.5`

Calculate the product

`12.5 \: \: {units}^(2)`

Hope this helps...

Best regards!
