Question

Find the areas of the figures below. can you find more than one method for each shape. ​

Answer 1

Area of a trapezium

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

`= (1)/(2) * 5 * (5 + 14)`

`= (1)/(2) * 5 * 19`

`= (1)/(2) * 95`

`= 47.5 {m}^(2)`

Answer 2

47.5! Ask if you wanna know how exactly i got this and the formulas!

Explanation:

3 x 5 = 15

15 / 2 = 7.5

5 x 5 = 25

14 - 8 = 6

6 x 5 = 30

30/2 = 15

7.5 + 25 + 15 = 47.5
