The formula for the area of a trapezoid with base lengths
a and
b and with a height of
h is:


A=(1)/(2)* h*(a+b)

The height is 6 cm and the two base lengths are 4 cm and 6 cm


A=(1)/(2) * 6 * (4+6)


=3*10


=30

The trapezoid has an area of 30 square centimeters. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
