In a kite, the diagonals bisect each other. are parallel. are congruent. are perpendicular.
@Hero
Bisect each other?
@mhchen
are perpendicular.

First find the area of the trapezoid
I mean thats the only thing I need to do for this question but I need help setting up the equation
You should have the equation in a formula sheet. You don't have a reference sheet?
I know the formula, but Im not sure what the bases are since the trapezoid is shaped differently
Bases dont matter You're only trying to find the average between them
Or the order doesnt matter
we have to multiply the sum of the bases by the height and then divide by 2
so 11.75+12+13.42?
to find the sum of the bases?
No no youre not dividing everything by 2 \((\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2})\cdot h\) Height is being multiplied separately
Oh okay but so we have to add 11.75+12+13.42 and then divide by 2?
That is a trapezoid
is the height6.12 or 18?
Height is 6.12 because it is the only vertical measure. You have 2 base lengths which happen to be parallel to each other. 11.75 and 18
so the answer is 91.035
Yep
