Answer:

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

Explanation:

Formula for the area of a trapezoid is,

Area (A) =
(1)/(2)(b+c)h

Here b and c are the bases and 'h' is the height of the trapezoid.

2A =
2[(1)/(2)(b+c)h]

2A = (b + c)h


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

Therefore, formula for the height of the trapezoid will be,

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