Answer 2

Given:

Bases of a trapezoid are 16.8 yards and 6.9 yards.

The height is 2 yards.

To find:

The area of the trapezoid.

Solution:

We know that, area of a trapezoid is

`Area=\frac{\text{Sum of bases}* \text{Height}}{2}`

Using this formula, we get

`Area=((16.8+6.9)* 2)/(2)`

`Area=((23.7)* 2)/(2)`

`Area=23.7\text{ yards}^2`

Therefore, the correct option is C.
