A trapezium is a two dimensional figure.

It can be said to have 0 or infinite height, therefore the volume of all trapezia is 0 or infinite.

The area of a trapezium can be found by the multiplying the mean average of the parallel sides by the perpendicular height between them.

If a and b are the lengths of the parallel sides, and h is the perpendicular height between them, then:

area_trapezium = ½(a + b) × h

If you have a trapezoidal prism, then its volume is given by the area of the trapezia at the ends multiplied by the length (l) between them:

volume_trapezoidal_prism = ½(a + b) × h × l
