Question

Help asap I'm desperate

Alex wants to paint one side of his skateboard ramp with glow-in-the-dark paint, but he needs to know how much area he is painting. Calculate the area of the isosceles trapezoid.


112 ft2

128 ft2

132 ft2

144 ft2

Answer 1

My best explanation is cut the trapezoid in half, and then multiply the top and bottom parts as well as 8 (the height) then divide by 4, then square that. I Think this should help. If It does not, I am so sorry but I have work to do my self.

Explanation:

Answer 2

the formula or the area of a trapezoid is (a+b) divided by 2 times height so the answer is 128ft2
