The total cost to laminate the table top is $128.

What is the total cost to laminate the table top?

A trapezoid is a convex quadrilateral. A trapezoid has at least on pair of parallel sides.

The first step is to determine the area of the table top.

Area of a trapezoid = 0.5  x (sum of the lengths of the parallel sides) x height

0.5 x (6 + 10) x 4 = 32 square foot

Now, multiply the area by the cost per square foot

32 x 4 = $128
