Question

If I had a trapezoid how do I find the Area
​

Answer 1

To find the area of a trapezoid, start by adding together the length of the bases, which are the 2 sides of the trapezoid that are parallel with each other. Then, multiply that number by the height of the trapezoid. Finish by dividing the product by 2 to find the area.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the trapezoid area formula, the area of a trapezoid is equal to half the product of the height and the sum of the two bases. Area = ½ x (Sum of parallel sides) x (perpendicular distance between the parallel sides). Where h is the height and b1, and b2 are the parallel sides of the trapezoid.
