To find the area of a trapezoid, you use the formula:

Area = [(sum of the bases) / 2] x height

In this case, the bases are 5in and 12in, and the height is 3in.

So, plugging in those values:

Area = [(5+12) / 2] x 3
Area = (17 / 2) x 3
Area = 25.5

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is approximately 25.5 square inches, which would be closest to option B: 30in^2.
