The trapezoid ABCD is shown below.
AB = 2.5 cm
DC = 4 cm
Height (h) = 6 cm
Calculate the area of the trapezoid.
The trapezoid ABCD is shown below.
AB = 2.5 cm
DC = 4 cm
Height (h) = 6 cm
Calculate the area of the trapezoid.
First, let's remind ourselves of the formula for the area of a trapezoid:
We substitute the given values into the formula:
(2.5+4)*6 =
6.5*6=
39/2 =
19.5
