Question

A wooded area is in a shape of a trapezoid whose bases measure 128 m and 92 m and its height is 40 m. find its area

Answer 1

Answer:-

According to the Question

It is given ,

• Height of trapezoid ,h = 40m

• Bases measures = 128m & 92 m

We have to calculate the area of trapezoid .

• Area of Trapezoid = Sum of bases/2 × height

Substitute the value we get

$:\implies$ Area of Trapezoid =(128+92)/2 ×40

$:\implies$ Area of Trapezoid = (220)/2 × 40

$:\implies$ Area of Trapezoid = 220/2 × 40

$:\implies$ Area of Trapezoid = 110×40

$:\implies$ Area of Trapezoid = 4400 m²

• Hence, the area of trapezoid is 4400m².

Answer 2

Given :-

A wooded area is in a shape of a trapezoid whose bases measure 128 m and 92 m and its height is 40 m.

To Find :-

Area

Solution :-

We know that

Area of trapezoid = 1/2 × (a + b) × h

Area = 1/2 × (128 + 92) × 40

Area = (128 + 92) × 20

Area = 220 × 20

Area = 4400 m²
