Solution:

Note that:

  • Area of trapezoid = (Sum of its parallel sides)h/2

Use the formula to find the area of the trapezoid.

  • (Sum of its parallel sides)h/2
  • => (50)15/2
  • => (25)15
  • => 375 mm²

Answer:


\sf area \ of \ trapezoid \ =375 \ mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:


\sf area \ of \ trapezoid \ = (1)/(2) * ( base \ 1 + base \ 2 ) * height

using the formula:


\sf area \ of \ trapezoid \ = (1)/(2) * ( 14+ 36 ) * 15


\sf area \ of \ trapezoid \ = (1)/(2) * ( 50 ) * 15


\sf area \ of \ trapezoid \ =25 * 15


\sf area \ of \ trapezoid \ =375 \ mm^2
