Answer:

110 square centimeters.

Explanation:

The area for a trapezoid can be figured out with the equation (a + b)h/2.

(9 * 5) + (9 + 4)10/2 {Work inside the parentheses first.}

45 + (13)10/2 {Divide 10 by 2 to get 5.}

45 + 13(5) {Multiply 13 by 5 to get 65.}

45 + 65 {Add 45 & 65 to get 110.}

110 square centimeters.

The area of the figure is 110 square centimeters.
