A trapezoid’s area can be calculated by the formula , where stands for area, for the first base’s length, for the second base’s length, and for height.
a trapezoid with the bottom base marked as b1, top base marked as b2 and height marked as h
Use the formulas to calculate the trapezoid’s area if its first base’s length is , its second base’s length is and its height is . (Use m for meters and m^2 for square meters.)
Area =
