The answer is 151.4496 cm², which can be rounded to 151.45 cm².

The area of a trapezoid is calculated by adding the top and bottom bases together, dividing that sum by two, and then multiplying the height.

A=
(a+b)/(2) h

A=
(22.2 cm+8.52 cm)/(2) h

A=
(30.72)/(2) h

A=15.36 cm×9.86 cm

A=151.4496 cm²
