Answer 1

32.5 square feet

Explanation:

here we just find the area of both shapes within the trapezoid and add them, let's start with the triangle,

formula for the area of a triangle is 0.5 × base × height

therefore,

the area of the triangle is 7.5

the area of a square is equal to the length of the side squared.

5^2 = 25

the sum of 25 + 7.5 = 32.5

final answer is 32.5 square feet

Answer 2

32.5 square feet

Explanation:

Area of a trapezoid

• 1/2 x (a + b) x h

1. a and b = length of parallel sides
2. h = height

Solving

• Here : a = 5, b = 8, and h = 5
• Area = 1/2 x (5 + 8) x 5
• Area = 1/2 x 13 x 5
• Area = 65/2
• Area = 32.5 square feet
