The area of a trapezium is represented as follow

1/2 * (a + b) * h

According to your diagram

a = 4 mm

b = 10 mm

h = 10 mm (note this is the side opposite the side with 11 mm)

Inputing the value in the formular we have

area = 1/2 * (4 + 10) * 10

area = 1/2 * (14) * 10

area = 1/2 * 140

area = 140/2

area = 70 mm squared.
