Answer:

42.5

Explanation:

The figure shown is a trapezoid

The area of a trapezoid can be calculated using this formula


A=(a+b)/(2) h

where a and b = bases and h = height

The trapezoid has the following dimensions

base 1 = 7 m

base 2 = 10 m

height = 5 m

Given this information we plug in the values into the formula


A =(7+10)/(2) 5\\7+10=17\\(17)/(2) =8.5\\8.5*5=42.5 \\A=42.5

So we can conclude that the area of the trapezoid is 42.5 square units
