To find the area of a trapezoid, you can use the formula:
Area = 1/2 x (a + b) x h
Where:
a = length of one base
b = length of the other base
h = height of the trapezoid
In this case:
a = 19 in
b = 12.6 in
h = 14.5 in
Area = 1/2 x (19 + 12.6) x 14.5
Area = 1/2 x (31.6) x 14.5
Area = 0.5 x 31.6 x 14.5
Area = 228.68 square inches
Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 228.68 square inches.
