Question

The area of this trapezoid. Be sure to include the correct unit in your an8 m15 m12 mTym

Answer 1

The area of a trapezoid can be calculated using the following equation:

`\text{Area = }(height*(GreaterBase+LowerBase))/(2)`

In this trapezoid, Height = 12m , Greater Base = 17m , Lower Base = 8m. Therefore:

`\text{Area = }(12*(17+8))/(2)=150m^2`
