Answer

24 square units

Step-by-step explanation

The formula for getting the area of a trapezium is

Area = 1/2 h(a+b0

where h ⇒ perpendicular height

a and b ⇒ length of the parallel sides.

h = 2 - -2 = 4 units

a = 5 - -3 = 8 units

b = 3 - -1 = 4 units

Area = 1/2 × 4(8+4)

= 2×12

= 24 square units.

in other words the answer is 24 (i Think) :)
