5

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 4, b = 2, c = 7, d = 8, and h = 2. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
18
12
10
21

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(2 + 8)(2)
a = ½(10)(2)
a = ½(20) = \( \frac{20}{2} \)
a = 10
