First you write the formula for the area of a trapezium, either from memory or by looking it up. Then you substitute the lengths of the sides in your trapezium for each of the appropriate terms in the formula. Oh, all right: Area = 1/2 (height) x (length of base-1 plus length of base-2).
0.5 * (a + b) * h
Area of a trapezium = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
1 - (a+b) X h 2
Simple. It is zero, since a six sided trapezium cannot exist! By definition, a trapezium is a quadrilateral and so it can have exactly four sides - no more, no fewer!
1/2 x (sum of bases) x height
area of trapezium=1/2{a+b}h
Area = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*heightNote: A trapezium in the UK is known as a trapezoid in the USA
The area of a trapezium is found because: 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height = area
Let the two parallel sides be a and b, and the distance between them, the height of the trapezium, be h. Then: area of trapezium = 1/2 (a+b) h That is half the sum of the two parallel sides times the height of the trapezium.

The area of a trapezium is given by 0.5*(a+b)*h where a and b are the lengths of the parallel sides and h is the vertical distance between them. The fact that the trapezium is isosceles does not matter. A trapezium is a 2 dimensional object and so it has no volume.
