use the formula for the area of a trapizoid A=(b₁+b₂/2), where A is area, and b₁ and b₂ are the length of the bases, and h is the height, to answer the question how many square feet of grass are there on a trapizoidal field with a height of 75ft and bases of 125ft and 81ft?

7725ft²

Answer:

Solution given:

Area =(b₁+b₂)h/2

where A is area, and b₁ and b₂ are the length of the bases, and h is the height

We have

b₁=125ft

b₂=81ft

h=75ft

Now substituting value we get

Area of trapezoid=(125+81)*75/2=7725ft²

Answer:

  • 7725 ft²

Explanation:

Use the formula:

  • A = (b₁ + b₂) h / 2

Substitute the values and calculate:

  • A = (125 + 81)*75/2 = 7725 ft²
