Question

Bella lives in a cul-de-sac in Austin, Texas. Trapezoid WXYZ represents her backyard. Given
, find the perimter of the backyard and the area.



P =
feet

Answer 1

To calculate the perimeter and area of trapezoid WXYZ, we need the lengths of its sides and the height (if necessary). However, without specific measurements provided for the sides or the height of the trapezoid, I cannot calculate the perimeter or the area accurately.

### Basic Formulas:
1. **Perimeter (P)** of a trapezoid is the sum of the lengths of all its sides:
\[
P = W + X + Y + Z
\]
(where W, X, Y, and Z are the lengths of the sides).

2. **Area (A)** of a trapezoid can be found using the formula:
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} (b_1 + b_2) \times h
\]
(where \( b_1 \) and \( b_2 \) are the lengths of the two parallel sides, and \( h \) is the height).

### Example Calculation:
If you provide the lengths of the bases and the height, I can compute the perimeter and area for you.

Please provide the necessary dimensions of trapezoid WXYZ (the lengths of the sides and/or the bases and height).
