Answer:

50 in²

Explanation:

What is the area in square inches of the trapezoid below.

Area of a trapezoid = 1/2(b1 + b2) h

Where

b1 = First base = 8in

b2 = Second base = 12in

h = Height = 5in

Area of trapezoid = 1/2(8 + 12) × 5

= 1/2 × 20 × 5

= 50 in²

The area of the trapezoid is 50 square inches
