Area = 1/2*(14+12)*8 = 104 square cm
1/2*(12+8)*5 = 50 square cm
x (height) = 12 units. area_trapezoid = ½ × sum_of_bases × height → height = 2 × area_trapezoid ÷ sum_of_bases → height = 2 × 150 ÷ (8 + 17) = 12 units
The formula to calculate the area of a trapezoid is (1/2) * sum of the bases * height. Given that the height is 12 cm and the bases are 15 cm and another side, the area can be calculated as (1/2) * (15 + b) * 12, where b is the length of the other base.
Area = 0.5*(15+7)*12 = 132 square feet
the formula for the area of a trapezoid is one half the sum of its bases times the height. So, A = .5(b1+b2)h = .5(18+12)4 = 60 meters2
Area = 1/2*(14+12)*8 = 104 square cm
1/2*(12+8)*5 = 50 square cm
x (height) = 12 units. area_trapezoid = ½ × sum_of_bases × height → height = 2 × area_trapezoid ÷ sum_of_bases → height = 2 × 150 ÷ (8 + 17) = 12 units
The formula to calculate the area of a trapezoid is (1/2) * sum of the bases * height. Given that the height is 12 cm and the bases are 15 cm and another side, the area can be calculated as (1/2) * (15 + b) * 12, where b is the length of the other base.
With the information given it can be any height greater than zero units. If the area was given, or the lengths of the equal sides were given, then the height can be calculated specifically.
Area = 0.5*(15+7)*12 = 132 square feet
Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*( sum of parallel sides)*height
Area = 1/2 (sum of bases) times height Area = (8+12)/2 x 4 Area = 10 x 4 = 40
Area = 0.5*(9 + 3)*11 = 0.5*12*11 = 66 sq cm
6 meters Check: 1/2*(8+12)*6 = 60 square meters
If you draw another altitude parallel to the height (the side which is perpendicular to the bases) of the trapezoid, you can see that a right triangle is formed.In this triangle the hypotenuse length is 17 in, and the base length equals to 28 - 16 = 12 in. From the Pythagorean theorem, height length = √(17 - 12) ≈ 12 in.Or find the measure of the angle (call it A) opposite to the height such as:cos A = 12/17A = cos-1 (12/17) ≈ 45⁰, which tells us that this right triangle is an isosceles triangle.Therefore, the height is (congruent with base) 12 inches long
