Answer: 45 square units

Explanation:

This shape can be broken down into two diffrent peices

The first peice is the rectangle

The second peice is the triangle

And both of these peices area's added together will yeild the total area

The rectangle is 7 units long and 5 units high, so it has an area of (7X5) = 35

The triangle is a little bit more complicated, it's formula is (BaseXHeight)/4

So all we need to do is plug in The base of the triangle = 4

And the Height of the trianlge = 5

So the triangles area is... (4X5)/2= 10

35+10=45 square units

Answer:

45 square units

Explanation:

To figure out the area of a trapezoid, the formula is. A= (b1 + b2)h รท2 . b1 is the top side which is 7 units and b2 is the bottom side which is 11 units. The height (h) is a vertical line going from the top to the bottom which is 5 units. All you need to do now is plug in those numbers and solve the equation.
