Answer : 19.5m


The area formula for a trapezoid is A = a+b
——h
2
You would cut the trapezoid vertically then you would do 4x3=12 then 3x5...3 because you subtracted 6-3, so 3x5 is 15 then 15/2 would be 7.5 you divided bc it’s a triangle and the formula for the triangle is A=bxh/2
Then lastly you would add 7.5 + 12 and you’d get 19.5m.

Hope it helped :)!
