Answer:
36cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey There!
So the first thing we need to do is find the area of a trapezoid formula
[tex]A = \frac{a +b}{2} h[/tex]
a = base 1
b = base 2
h = hypotenuse
Now we just plug in the values and get
[tex]A = \frac{6+12}{2} 4[/tex]
6+12=18
[tex]\frac{18}{2} = 9[/tex]
9x4=36
So the area of the trapezoid is 36 cm ²
