The area increases, but there's no way to say by how much in general.
The percent increase is different in different cases.

If the base and height of a triangle are doubled how is its area changed?
The area is multiplied by 4, not doubled.
What is the area of a trapezoid with base of 4Cm and 28Cm?
The height of the trapezoid is also needed to find its area which is as follows:- Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*(sum of bases or parallel sides)*height
What is the formula for a trapezoid?
The perimeter of a trapezoid is the sum of the lengths of each side. To find the area of a trapezoid: add base 1 and base 2 together then divide that answer by 2, then multiply it by the height of the trapezoid.
How do you get the base of a trapezoid without the area?
Simply measure it and the parallel bases of a trapezoid will have different lengths.
What is the area of a trapezoid with bases of 3 yards and 7 yards and a height of 3 yards?
The area of a trapezoid is 1/2 * (base 1 + base 2) * height, so the area of this trapezoid = 0.5*(3+7)*3 = 15 square yards
What is the effect on the area of a triangle if the base is doubled and the height is cut in half and What happens to the area if the base is doubled and the height remains the same?
In the first case, the area will remain the same. In the second case, the area will doubled.
What is the effect on area of a triangle if the base is doubled the height is cut in half?
nothing
What happens to the area of the base of a rectangular prism when the base is doubled?
Refer to the question. It says the base is doubled! And when the dimensions of the base are doubled, the area is multiplied by 4.
What is the effect on the area of a triangle if the base is doubled and the height in cut in half?
you can cut a triangle directly
What are the area and perimeter of a trapezoid?
The perimeter of a trapezoid is the sum of its bases and legs. The area of a trapezoid is the height times (base 1 + base 2) divided by 2
If the base and height of a triangle are doubled how is its area changed?
The area is multiplied by 4, not doubled.
Formula for area of a trapezoid?
The area of a trapezoid is: base 1 + base 2 times height divided by 2. :) I hope I helped you out a bit ^^
How does the area of a triangle change when the height is doubled?
If the base stays the same, the area is also doubled.
What happens to the area of a triangle when the base is doubled and the height remains the same?
The area gets doubled.
How is the formula for the area of a trapezoid related to the formula for the area for a triangle?
The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A = 1/2 (b1 + b2)/h where b1 is the upper base of the trapezoid , b2 is the lower base of the trapezoid and h is the height of the trapezoid. Since a triangle has only one base , replace either b1 or b2 with zero. Thus the area of a triangle is A = 1/2bh
How do you find the area of a trapezoid with measurements of 8 cm 9 cm 14cm?
the area of a trapezoid is the height times (base 1 + base 2)
What happens if the base of a triangle is doubled?
If the altitude is not changed, the area would be doubled.
