Question

. A pedestal is built using a trapezoid-shaped base. Find the area of the trapezoid.

(1 point)
A equals 18 meters squared
A equals 24 meters squared
A equals 15 meters squared
A equals 22 meters squared

Answer 1

Should be 18 square meters

Answer 2

18m^2

area of a trapezoid = (a+b)/2 * h, where a and b are bases 1 and 2, and h is height

(4+8)/2 * 3

= 12/2 * 3

= 6 * 3

= 18
