Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The area formula for a trapezoid is as follows:

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

Where:

A = Area

a = top side length

b = bottom side length

h = height

Plug in the values given to you into the equation and solve.

A =
(7 +12)/(2)(5)

A =
(19)/(2)(5)

A =
(95)/(2)

A = 47.5
in.^2 is the answer.
