Answer:

68.75

Explanation:

Measure the length of the parallel sides and add them together. Then multiply this number by the height of the area. Then multiply by ½ or divide by two to find the square footage of the trapezoid.

13.6 + 5.9= 19.5

19.5 + 8 = 27.5

27.5 x 5 = 137.5

137.5 x 1/2 = 68.75
