Question

question 14 (1 point) what is the area of the trapezoid in the diagram below? a 124 sq. ft b 176 sq. ft c 248 sq. ft d 352 sq. ft

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the trapezoid area formula

The formula for the area of 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 from the diagram

Here, \(a = 31\) feet, \(b=13\) feet, and \(h = 8\) feet.

Step3: Substitute the values into the formula
