Question

What is the area of trapezoid QRST in square units?

​

Answer 1

Answer:  The area of Trapezoid qrst in sqr units is a=b divided by 2 multiplied by h

Answer 2

The area of a trapezoid in square units is   $\frac{(a+b)h}{2}$ .

We know that in a trapezoid, we have two parallel sides opposite to each other, a side that is perpendicular to both the parallel sides and is the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides, and a fourth side in any random orientation.

to find the area of a trapezoid we use the formula

area =  $\frac{(a+b)h}{2}$  square units

where

a and b are the parallel sides

h is the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides
