EXPLANATION

Given the Trapezoid, its surface is given by the following equation:


Area=(1)/(2)h(a+b)

Where a=long base= 14, b=short base= 10 h=altitude= 7

Now, replacing terms:


\text{Area}=(1)/(2)7(14+10)

Adding terms:


\text{Area}=(7)/(2)(24)

Removing the parentheses and simplifying:


\text{Area}=84

So, the answer is 84 units.
