Question

Find the area of this trapezoid.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi there! :-D

Assuming 15 is the length of the "roof" of the trapezoid and 23 is the length of the entire base of the trapezoid:

ANSWER

• 171 square units

EXPLANATION

The area of a trapezoid is given by 

   Area = 1/2(a+b)(h)

where a and b are the lengths of the "roof" and the base (order of addition does not matter) and h is the height of the trapezoid.

Therefore,

   Area = 1/2(15 + 23)(9) = 171

The area of this trapezoid is 171 square units.

Best of luck! :)

Answer 2

Answer: hey mate answer is 171 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

a = 23 [ known as long base ]

b = 15 [ known as short base ]

h = 9  [ known as altitude ]

To find :

Area of Trapezoid.

Solution :

By using formula : Area = [ a + b ] / 2 * h

So now substitute the values

Area = [ 23 + 15 ] / 2 * 9

         = 38 / 2 * 9

         =  19 * 9

         = 171 cm^2

∴ Thus, Area of this trapezoid is 171 cm^2.
