Use the formula for the area of a trapezoid A=h(b1+b2/2) , where A is area, b1 and b2 are the length of the bases, and h is the height, to answer the question. How many square feet of grass are there on a trapezoidal field with a height of 75 ft and bases of 125 ft and 81 ft?

Answer 1

To find the area of the trapezoid, we need to substitute the given values into the formula.

A = h(b1 + b2)/2

A = 75(125 + 81)/2

A = 75(206)/2

A = 15450/2

A = 7725 square feet

Therefore, there are 7725 square feet of grass on the trapezoidal field.
