Example:
First you look at your trapezoid & write down the measurements for its bases & its height in order to find your area
Formula: A = 1/2 h (b1+b2)
lets say these were the measurements..
Base1: 3ft
Base2: 8ft
Height:5ft
Area: 1/2h(b1+b2)
Area: 1/2 x 5 (3+8)
Area: 1/2 x 5 (11)
Area: 1/2 x 55
Area: 27.5 ft squared
