Given:

The figure of a trapezoid.

Length of mid-segment = 5.5

Height of the trapezoid =
6√(3)

To find:

The area of the trapezoid.

Solution:

The area of a trapezoid is:


A=M* h ...(i)


A=(a+b)/(2)* h

Where, a,b are bases and h is the vertical height.

We know that
M=(a+b)/(2) is the length of the mid-segment.

Putting M=5.5 and
h=6√(3) in (i), we get


A=5.5* 6√(3)


A=33√(3)

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is
33√(3) units squared.
