What is the area of this trapezoid?
Solution:
According to the area of a trapezoid:
Step 1: Add the parallel sides. \(12+8=20\)
Step 2: Multiply it by the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides. \(20×3=60\)
Step 3: Multiply the product by \(\frac{1}{2}\).
\(\frac{1}{2}×60=30\). So, the area of this trapezoid is \(60 yd^2\).
