Answer:

  • 26m²

Explanation:

Given :-

AB = 5m

CB = 5m

CD = 8 m

AD = 4m

____________________________


\mathrm{Area \; of \; trapezoid = \cfrac{1}{2}\; (Sum\; of\; parallel\: sides)* height}


\mathrm{Area = \cfrac{1}{2}\:(AB + CD)* AD }


\mathrm{\cfrac{1}{2}\:(5m+8m)* 4m }


\mathrm{\cfrac{1}{2} * 13m* 4m}


\mathrm{26m^2}

Therefore, the Area of the trapezoid is 26m².
