Question

5. The area of the trapezoid is 75 square inches. Find the height of the trapezoid. And it’s two bases are 10 and 15.

Answer 1

The answer is 6

Explanation:

A=½(b1 + b2) h

we substitute

Area=75

the two bases are 10 and 15

75=½(10+15) h

75=½(25)h

75=(1*25/2)h

75= 25h/2

75/1= 25h/2

25h*1= 75*2

25h= 150

we divide by 25

25h/25= 150/25

h=6
