The bases of the trapezoid are 6 and 10. The height is 4. Find the area. 30 sq. units 32 sq. units 64 sq. units
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer: The answer is: [B]:__________________________________________________ → " 32 sq. units " . __________________________________________________ → The area of the trapezoid is: " 32 sq. units " .__________________________________________________ Step-by-step explanation:__________________________________________________The formula for the Area, "A" ; of a "trapezoid" is: A = ½ * (b₁ + b₂) * h ; _________________________________________________ in which: " A " ; is the "area" (for which we shall solve) ; " b₁ " ; is the "base length" (of "one of the bases") of the trapezoid; " b₂ " ; is the "base length" (of the "other" base) of the trapezoid ; " h " ; is the "height" [perpendicular height] of the trapezoid ; _________________________________________________Now, let us plug in our "given values" into the equation/formula ; and calculate; to solve for the: area; "A" ; of the "trapezoid" ; in "sq. units" ;_________________________________________________Given:" b₁ = 6 " ;" b₂ = 10 " ; " h = 4 " ; _________________________________________________ → A = ½ * (b₁ + b₂) * h ; → = ½ * (6 + 10) * 4 ; → = ½ * (16) * 4 ; → = 8 * 4 ; → = 8 * 4 ; → A = 32 sq. units ;________________________________________________→ The area of the trapezoid is: " 32 sq. units "; → which is: Answer choice: [B]: " 32 sq. units " . _________________________________________________Hope this is helpful to you!
