Respuesta :

A trapezoid is the quadrilateral with one pair of opposite sides parallel.

Whatchu is a trapezoid?

It should be noted that trapezoid can have right angles and it can have congruent sides.

The area will be illustrated as:

Drop perpendiculars from the short base to the long base. This splits the trapezoid up into a rectangle and two right triangles.

-The area of a rectangle is (length) x (width). The area of a triangle is (1/2) (base x height).

Apply these area formulas to the three parts of the trapezoid, add up, and you'll wind up with Area = (1/2) (height) (long base  +  short base) for the total area of the trapezoid.
