Area = 1/2 x sum_of_lengths_of_parallel_sides x distance_between_them

  • If 14 in and 12 in are the parallel sides and 8 in is the distance between them:
Area = 1/2 x (14 in + 12 in) x 8 in

= 104 in2

  • If 14 in and 8 in are the parallel sides and 12 in is the distance between them:
Area = 1/2 x (14 in + 8 in) x 12 in

= 132 in2

  • If 12 in and 8 in are the parallel sides and 14 in is the distance between them:
Area = 1/2 x (12 in + 8 in) x 14 in

= 140 in2

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
