What is the area of the trapezoid shown ?

48 square feet.

Since the length of the shorter parallel side is 6 feet, we know that the unidentified part of the length for the longer parallel side of the shape is 6 feet. 6 + 2 +2 = 10

Now we can use the formula to find out the area of a trapezium, which is: 1/2((sum of the parallel sides) x (the distance between them)).

1/2((10+6) x (6)).

= 1/2(16 × 6)
= 1/2(96)
= 48 square feet

- Hope it helps!
