Answer:

Explanation:

Just to keep the computer happy by not having to figure out rounding answers that involve square roots and other problem numbers. I've chosen numbers that should work out evenly. And you should be able to draw the trapezoid.

Givens

H = 14

a = 23

b = 25

Area = 336

Formula

Area = (a + b)*h/2

Solution

Area = (23 + 25)*14/2

Area = 48 * 7

Area = 336

Note if a + b = 48 any values for a and b will work.
