Hello! The area of the trapezoid is 16.
The way to get this answer is by using the following equation:
area = [tex]\frac{base 1 * base 2}{2} * height[/tex]
base 1 is the small one, usually on the top. base 2 is the large one, usually on the bottom. the height is the direct distance from base 1 to base 2
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
