What is the area in square inches of the trapezoid? 6.8 in, 4.8 in, 10.4 in, 7.6 in

1 answer

The formula to calculate the area of a trapezoid is ((base1 + base2) / 2) * height.

Given:
Base 1 = 6.8 in
Base 2 = 4.8 in
Height = 7.6 in

Using the formula:
Area = ((6.8 + 4.8) / 2) * 7.6
Area = (11.6 / 2) * 7.6
Area = 5.8 * 7.6
Area = 44.08 square inches

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 44.08 square inches.
