Question

What is the area of the trapezoid? 13 5t st st square feet

Answer 1

The formula for calculating the area of a trapezoid is given by;

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

where a and b are the base and h is the height

From the question,

a = 5

b= 13

h = 3

substitute the vakues into the formula

`A=(5+13)/(2)(3)`
`A=\text{ 9}*3`
`A=27ft^2`
