Step-by-step explanation

For the given question:

Question 4

The area of the trapezoid is 150 square meters

The bases are 14 meters and 16 meters

The height of the trapezoid will be obtained using the formula


\begin{gathered} A=(1)/(2)(b+c)* h \\ \text{where} \\ A=\text{ area of trapezoid} \\ b,c=\text{ bases of the trapezoid} \\ h=\text{height of the trapezoid} \end{gathered}

Substituting these values into the formula , we will obtain


\begin{gathered} 150=(1)/(2)(14+16)* h \\ \\ 150=(1)/(2)(30)h \\ \\ 150=15h \end{gathered}

To get h, we will divide both sides by 15


\begin{gathered} h=(150)/(15) \\ \\ h=10\text{ meters} \end{gathered}
