The area of the trapezoid is 10 squared units
Here, we want to find the area of the trapezoid
Mathematically, we have this as;
a and b represents the parallel bases, h represents the height
LH is a; the distance here is between (-6,-4) and (-4,-5)
WO is the distance b and the distance is between (-7,-1) and ( -1,-4)
h is the distance SH and it is between (-5,-2) and (-6,-4)
To find the distance between each of the points, we use the distance formula;
We have this as;
Thus, we substitute these values and get;
