Question

Find the area. 5 m 4 m 2 m​

Answer 1

The area of trapezoid is 14m².

Explanation:

Given that tha area of trapezoid is A = 1/2×(a+b)xh where a, b represents the side lengths and h is the height. So you have to substitute the values into the expressions :

`area = (1)/(2) * (a + b) * h`

`let \: a = 5,b = 2,h = 4`

`area = (1)/(2) * (5 + 2) * 4`

`area = 2 * 7`

`area = 14 \: {m}^(2)`
