bottom: 29.2
(1 point)
607.32 in.2
36.7 in.2
303.66 in.2
77.2 in.2

Answer 1

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

Area = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * h

where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel sides and h is the height.

In this case, b1 = 19 in, b2 = 29.2 in, and h = 12.6 in.

Plugging these values into the formula:

Area = (1/2) * (19 + 29.2) * 12.6
Area = (1/2) * 48.2 * 12.6
Area = 24.1 * 12.6
Area = 303.66 in^2

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 303.66 in^2.

The correct answer is:
303.66 in^2
