Ch 7 Review Question
Ch 7 is on areas of polygons. I will be walking you through how to find the area of a trapezoid. To find the area of a trapezoid, the formula is Area=1/2(height)(base1+base2). So you will need to find the height and the length of both bases. So if one base was 6cm, the other 8cm, and the height 4cm, you would set up your equation like this: Area=1/2(4cm)(6cm+8cm)-->Area=2cm(14cm)-->Area=28cm squared. That is your answer.
Stay classy bloggers.
