What is the area of the quadrilateral? height is 12cm on the left and height is 10cm on the right and the width is 8cm
The area of a quadrilateral can be calculated by dividing it into two triangles and then finding the sum of the areas of these triangles.
Triangle 1: Area = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 8cm * 12cm = 48 square cm
Triangle 2: Area = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 8cm * 10cm = 40 square cm
Adding the areas of the two triangles together, the total area of the quadrilateral is 48 + 40 = 88 square cm.
