Read each question carefully and calculate the area of the trapezoids. Show your work where applicable. The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A = 1/2 * (b1 + b2) * h, where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel bases and h is the height.
1. Find the area of the trapezoid with bases 8 cm and 12 cm, and a height of 5 cm.
2. If a trapezoid has an area of 45 square meters, a height of 6 meters, and one base of 7 meters, the other base is meters.
3. The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A = 1/2 * (b1 + b2) * .
4. All trapezoids have at least one pair of parallel sides.
True
False
5. Which of the following shapes is NOT a trapezoid?
6. A garden is shaped like a trapezoid with bases of 10 feet and 16 feet. If the perpendicular distance between the bases is 8 feet, what is the area of the garden?
