Becca’s backyard is shaped like a trapezoid. The dimensions of the backyard are shown in the diagram.
the top is 15
the left side is 4
the right side is 5
the bottom is 9
the options are
120m2
60m2
48m2
96m2
To find the area of the trapezoid, we can use the formula:
Area = (1/2) * (sum of the parallel sides) * (height)
In this case, the sum of the parallel sides is 4 + 5 = 9, and the height is 15.
Therefore,
Area = (1/2) * 9 * 15 = 67.5 m²
None of the given options match the calculated area of 67.5 m².
