The dimensions of a lawn shaped like a trapezoid are given in meters. Find the area of the lawn in square meters?
idk what the answer so this problem is
To find the area of a trapezoid-shaped lawn, you will need to know the lengths of its bases (the parallel sides) and the height (the perpendicular distance between the bases). Once you have these measurements, you can use the following formula to calculate the area:
Area = (sum of the lengths of the bases) * height / 2
For example, let's say the lengths of the bases are 10 meters and 8 meters, and the height is 6 meters. Plugging these numbers into the formula, you get:
Area = (10 + 8) * 6 / 2
= 18 * 6 / 2
= 108 / 2
= 54 square meters
So, the area of the trapezoid-shaped lawn is 54 square meters.
as with all trapezoids,
A = (b1 + b2)/2 * h
Now you supply some numbers ...
