Answer:

(B) 132 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Top Length = 3 + 8 + 3 = 14 in

Bottom Length = 8 in

Area of the trapezoid

= 1/2 (14 + 8) x 12

= 1/2 (22) (12)

= 132 in²

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated using the formula

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] h (a + b)

where h is the perpendicular height and a, b the parallel bases.

here h = 12, a = AB = 8 and b = DC = 3+ 8 + 3 = 14

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 12 × (8 + 14) = 6 × 22 = 132 in² → B
