Answer:

A = 35 cm²

Explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as

A =
(1)/(2) h (b₁ + b₂)

where h is the perpendicular height between the bases and b₁, b₂ are the bases.

Here h = 5 , b₁ = 9 and b₂ = 5 , then

A =
(1)/(2) × 5 × (9 + 5) = 2.5 × 14 = 35 cm²

Answer:

Area = 35 cm^ 2

Explanation:

Area = 1/2(a+b) x h

1/2 (5+9) x 5

= 35 cm^ 2
