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


What is the area of a trapezoid with 10 inches base and 8 inches height?

A trapezoid has two bases of different lengths. So there's a number missingfrom the question, and the area can't be calculated without it.


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 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 base2 of a trapezoid without the base?

you have to work backwards to find your answer. once you have the area, you have to do a= height times (base 1 + base 2) divided by two.


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 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


Can a trapezoid and parallelogram have the same area?

Yes, certainly. The trapezoid area is one half sum of bases times height and the parallelogram area is base times height If the base of the parallelogram is equal to 1/2 the sum of he trapezoid bases, they have the same area


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.


A trapezoid has a height of 3cm the first base is 5cm and the second base 3cm what is the area?

Area of trapezoid: 0.5*(5+3)*3 = 12 square cm


What is the area of a trapezoid if the meausure of the base is 8 and the height is 5?

Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*(sum of parallel bases)*height Need to know the measure of the other base


How do you find the area of a parallelogram or trapezoid?

For a parallelogram, take the base times the height. For a trapezoid, take the smaller base and times it by the height.
