A trapezoid has two bases that measure 11 cm and 8 cm. The height of the figure is 5 cm. What is the area of the
trapezoid?
O 95 cm
O 64 cm
O 47.5 cm
O 24 cm

Respuesta :

Answer:

47.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A=1/2*h(b1+b2)

A=1/2*5(11+8)

A=1/2*95

A=47.5

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{Area = 47.5 cm^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezoid = [tex]\frac{a+b}{2} h[/tex]

Where a = 11 cm, b = 8 cm and h = 5 cm

=> Area = [tex]\frac{11+8}{2} (5)[/tex]

=> Area = [tex]\frac{19}{2} (5)[/tex]

=> Area = [tex]\frac{95}{2}[/tex]

=> Area = 47.5 cm²
