What is the area of the figure in square centimeters?
I'm sorry, but I cannot access external files or images. Please provide a description of the figure or the dimensions of the figure in order to calculate the area in square centimeters.
its a trapezoid the top line is 8cm the bottom line is 10cm the left line is 4cm the right line is slated and unlabled
To find the area of a trapezoid, we can use the formula:
Area = (1/2) x (a + b) x h
Where:
a = length of the top base = 8 cm
b = length of the bottom base = 10 cm
h = height of the trapezoid = 4 cm
Plugging in the values:
Area = (1/2) x (8 + 10) x 4
Area = (1/2) x 18 x 4
Area = 9 x 4
Area = 36 square centimeters
Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 36 square centimeters.
