How do you convert the perimeter of a trapezoid to area?
You cannot. There is no direct relationship between perimeter and area.
What is the area of a trapezoid if the perimeter is 32?
Unlike a square, knowing the perimeter of a trapezoid is not enough to be able to calculate its area. Think of a rectangle with a perimeter of 20cm. One possibility is that it has a length of 8cm and a width of 2cm. This would give and area of 16cm2. However the rectangle could have also had a length of 7cm and a width of 3cm as this would also give a perimeter of 20cm. However this rectangle now has an area of 21cm2. To be able to calculate the area of the trapezoid, you would need to know more about it than just its perimeter.
How do you equate perimeter on a trapezoid?
The perimeter of a trapezoid is the sum of its 4 sides.
What is the area of a trapezoid that has a perimeter of 230?
Not enough information. To calculate this you must know the altitude or height.
What is the formula to figure out the measure of any trapezoid?
Perimeter = sum of its 4 sides Area = 0.5*(sum of 2 parallel sides)*height
