Question

The bases of the trapezoid are 6 and 10. The height is 4. Find the area. 30 sq. units 32 sq. units 64 sq. units

Answer 1

A of trapezoid = (6+10)•4/2= 16•2=32sq un

Answer 2

(B)

Explanation:

Consider a trapezoid whose bases are 6 and 10 and the height is 4, then the area of the trapezoid is given as:

Area=
`((b_(1)+b_(2))/(2))h`

Area=
`((6+10)/(2))(4)`

Area=
`16{*}2`

Area=
`32 sq units`

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is
`32 sq units`.
