Answer:

52 units^2

Explanation:

It's unclear what the leg lengths and the width are. I must assume that the lengths are 12 units and 14 units and that the width of the trapezoid is 4 units. You were given an illustration for this problem and should have shared it or described the trapezoid in words. Please do this if the answer given below does not agree with any of your answer choices.

If the lengths are 12 units and 14 units and that the width of the trapezoid is 4 units, then the area is

12 units + 14 units

A = ---------------------------- * 4 units = 52 units^2
