Answer 2

Explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The area of trapezoid is given by the formula :
`(1)/(2)(a+b)*h`

Where a and b are the length of two parallel lines.

h is the distance between both lines.

Plugging the values in formula :

Area =
`(1)/(2)(4+10)*10`

Area =
`(1)/(2)*14*10`

Area =
`7*10`

Area = 70 square feet

So thr area of one trapezoid is 70 square feet. : Answer
