Question

What is the area in the square units of the trapezoid below someone pls
help​

Answer 1

= 185 units²

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 the bases

here h = 10 , b₁ = 22 , b₂ = 22 - 7 = 15 , then

A =
`(1)/(2)` × 10 × (22 + 15) = 5 × 37 = 185 units²
