Question

In square inches, what is the area of quadrilateralABCD shown below?

Answer 1

The quadrilateral ABCD represents a trapezoid. The area of a trapezoid is given by:

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

Where:

a = Long base = 7in

b = Short base = 4in

h = Height = 4 in

Therefore:

`\begin{gathered} A=(7+4)/(2)*4 \\ A=22in^2 \end{gathered}`

Answer:

G. 22
