Answer:

Number 1 is correct

4.5 x 12 = 54

Number 3 is wrong,

Formula of a triangle:

BH x 1/2(basically dividing by 2)

8 x 15 = 120,

120 DIVIDED BY 2 = 60 is your area, not 120.

Your plug in would be for the triangle:

8 x 15 x 1/2

Number 5 is wrong.

11 + 4 = 15

15 x 6 (you forgot to multiply by the height!) = 90

90 divided by 2 ( x 1/2) = 45 is your area, NOT 90.

Your formula for a trapezoid is:

(b1 + b2) x h x 1/2 Don't forget your height next time!

Plug in: (4 + 11) x 6 x 1/2
