To find the area of a trapezoid, you use the formula A = (1/2)(b1 + b2)(h), where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the two parallel sides and h is the height of the trapezoid.
In this case, b1 = 8 units, b2 = 12 units, and h = 4 units.
Plugging these values into the formula:
A = (1/2)(8 + 12)(4)
A = (1/2)(20)(4)
A = (1/2)(80)
A = 40 units squared
Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 40 units squared.
