Good.
Now look at the front and back sides. They have the same shape and area.
Each side is a rectangle 1 m by 25 m, and a trapezoid with bases 25 m and 13 m, and a height of 5 m.

mathstudent55 · Answer

What is the area of a rectangle 1 m by 25 m?

anonymous · Answer

25m

mathstudent55 · Answer

25 m^2
Good.
Now we have the trapezoid.
The bases are 13 m and 25 m.
The height is 5 m.
Do you know how to find the area of a trapezoid?

anonymous · Answer

yes, A=25+13/2(5) = 95

mathstudent55 · Answer

A=(25+13)/2(5) = 95
Correct.
Each trapezoid has area 25 m^2.

Let's continue.
Look at the bottom of the pool.
What is the shape and its area?
