Area in square units = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
Area = (1/2) x (height) x (length of lower base + length of upper base)
There is no simple formula and, in any case, the answer will depend on what information about the trapezoid is given.
Area = Base * Height so Base = Area/Height
The formula for the area of a trapezoid is as follows:A = 1/2 (B1 + B2) hIn words, the area is equal to the sum of the lengths of the two parallel sides ("B1 + B2") times the height ("h") divided by two ("1/2").
