The formula for the area of a trapezoid is (1/2) x (long base + short base) x height.
Plugging in the values:
(1/2) x (24 + 10) x 7
(1/2) x (34) x 7
17 x 34
= 119
Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 119 square units.
Find the area of this trapezoid. Area = _______ square units. Round to the nearest whole number.
