Answer:
area of parallelogram = 21
area of trapezoid = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello There!
The first figure shown is a parallelogram and the following dimensions are given
base = 7mm
height = 3mm
The area of a parallelogram can simply be found by multiplying the base by the height
so Area = 7 * 3
7 * 3 =21 so the area of the parallelogram is 21 square millimeters
The second figure given is a trapezoid and the following dimensions are given
height = 4m
base 1 = 5m
base 2 = 11m
To find the area of a trapezoid we use this formula
[tex]A=\frac{a+b}{2} h[/tex]
where a and b are bases and h = height
given the dimensions all we have to do is plug in the values into the formula
[tex]A=\frac{5+11}{2} 4\\5+11=16\\\frac{16}{2} =8\\8*4=32\\A=32[/tex]
so we can conclude that the area of the trapezoid is 32 square meters
