In the formula for the area of a trapezoid, ( A = \frac{1}{2} (b_1 + b_2) h ), ( b_2 ) represents the length of one of the two parallel sides (bases) of the trapezoid. The other base is denoted as ( b_1 ). The height ( h ) is the perpendicular distance between these two bases. The area is calculated by averaging the lengths of the bases and then multiplying by the height.

How is the formula for the area of a trapezoid related to the formula for the area for a triangle?
The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A = 1/2 (b1 + b2)/h where b1 is the upper base of the trapezoid , b2 is the lower base of the trapezoid and h is the height of the trapezoid. Since a triangle has only one base , replace either b1 or b2 with zero. Thus the area of a triangle is A = 1/2bh
