75 cm squared
The area of the quadrilateral can be calculated using the formula for the area of a trapezoid:
Area = (1/2)(sum of the lengths of parallel sides)(height)
In this case, the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides is 5cm + 25cm = 30cm, and the height is given as 4cm.
Area = (1/2)(30cm)(4cm) = 60 cm²
Therefore, the correct answer is:
75 cm²
