According to the given data we have the following:

Length of side a=100 ft

Lenght of side b=140 ft

Height of side h=40 ft

In order to calculate the area of this trapezoid we would have to make the following calculation:

area of this trapezoid=(a + b)/2)h

area of this trapezoid=(100+140)/2)40

area of this trapezoid=120*40

area of this trapezoid=4,800
