The area of this trapezoid is A = 55

We know that the application formula for calculating the area of a trapezoid is given by:


\boxed{ \large \sf A = ((b + b) * h)/(2) } \\ \\

⚘ Then, the resolution will be:


{ \large \sf A = ((7 + 15) * 5)/(2) }


{ \large \sf A= \frac {22 * 5}{2} }


{ \large \sf A= \frac {110}{2} }


\pink{ \boxed{ \purple{ \boxed{ \large \sf A= 55 }}}} \\ \\

Therefore, the area of this trapezoid will be, A = 55
