Question

name 4. 12 cm 10 cm 6 cm 8 cm a. 36 cm² b. 60 cm² c. 24 cm² d. 40 cm²

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the trapezoid area formula

The area formula for a trapezoid is \(A=\frac{(a + b)h}{2}\), where \(a\) and \(b\) are the lengths of the parallel sides, and \(h\) is the height.

Step2: Identify the values of \(a\), \(b\), and \(h\)

From the problem, \(a = 12\space cm\), \(b=8\space cm\), and \(h = 6\space cm\).

Step3: Substitute the values into the formula
