Question

What is the area of the trapezoid? The diagram is not drawn to scale. (picture in comments)

Answer 1

A=1/2bh

Answer 2

Well, you can do this 2 ways...

1) Using the full figure and using the area of a trapezoid \(\large \frac{top + bottom}{2}\times h\)

Or

2) you can see that this is just a rectangle *which you know how to find the area of...and 2 triangles that you ALSO know how to find the areas of and just sum them all together
