Question

The area in the trapezoid in square units 10 inches, 8 inches, 12 inches.

Answer 1

100 sq inches

Explanation:

Simply use the formula for finding the area:

`(1)/(2) * (sum of parallel sides) * height\\= (1)/(2) * (8 + 12) * 10\\= (1)/(2) * 20 * 10\\= 100 sq. inches`

Answer 2

Answer: 100

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is (B1+B2)/2*h

so substitute:

(8+12)/2*10

20/2*10

10*10

100
