A right trapezoid is shown with a height labeled 4 feet and one of the bases labeled as 7 feet, and the other base is labeled as 5 feet. pleassssssssssse help me

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Trapezoid= (a+b)*h/2

Here a nd b are the bases.

a = 7 ft;  b = 5 ft; h = 4 ft

[tex]Area=\frac{(7+5)*4}{2}\\\\=\frac{12*4}{2}\\\\=12*2[/tex]

= 24 square feet

Area = 1/2(sum of parallel sides) x Height

=> 1/2(7+5) x 4

=> 1/2(12) x 4

=> 6 x 4

=> 24 feet
