Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of trapezoid = average of bases X height =
(5.2 + 9.1) / 2 * 6.5 = 46.5 in^2
Answer:
A = 49.725 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
• A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] h (b₁ + b₂ )
h is the perpendicular height between the bases b₁ and b₂
here h = 6.5 , b₁ = UV = 9.1 and b₂ = WX = 6.2 , then
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 6.5 × (9.1 + 6.2) = 3.25 × 15.3 = 49.725 in²
