Question

the area a of a trapezoid with parallel bases b1 and b2 and height h is calculated using which formula? a = (1/2)b1b2h a = h(b1 + b2) a = (b1 + b2)/2 x h a = b1b2 h

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the trapezoid area formula

The area of a trapezoid is calculated by averaging the lengths of the two parallel bases and then multiplying by the height.
The formula is \(A=\frac{(b_1 + b_2)}{2}\times h\)

Answer:

C. \(A=(b1 + b2)/2\times h\)
