Answer:
The area of trapezoid is 48 sq units.
Explanation:
According to the question,
➻ Trapezoid is consist of many square shapes. Each grid square equals 2 units. We need to find the area of trapezoid.
➻ To find area we need to find the length if base and height of trapezoid.
Calculate the square grids to find base and height. we get.
Base ; SR = 4 units and TA = 8units
Height = 8 units.
Finding the area of trapezoid.
We know that,
Area of trapezoid = ( Base1 + Base2 ) ×Height / 2
plug the values of both base and a height.
Area of trapezoid = ( 4 + 8 ) × 8 / 2
Add the numbers which are in bracket and multiply by 8.
Area of trapezoid = 12 × 8 / 2 = 96/2
Divide 96 by 2.
Area of trapezoid = 48 sq units.
Hence,
The area of trapezoid is 48 sq units.
