Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is:

A = ((b1 + b2) / 2) * h

where A is the area, b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel sides, and h is the height.

Rearranging this formula to solve for h, we get:

h = 2A / (b1 + b2)

Plugging in the given values, we get:

h = 2(35mm²) / (b1 + b2)

Since we don't have enough information to find the lengths of the parallel sides or the value of their sum, we cannot determine the height of the trapezoid with just this information.
