The area of this trapezoid is 375 [tex]inches^{2} [/tex]
The formula to find the area of a trapezoid is: [tex]A= \frac{a+b}{2} h[/tex]
A = Area
a & b = the base lengths
h = height length
Using this, with the given variables, we can plug our formula in and work it out.
[tex]A= \frac{10+40}{2}15 [/tex].................................Simplify 10+40 to 50
[tex]A= \frac{50}{2}15 [/tex].......................................Simplify [tex] \frac{50}{2} [/tex] to 25
[tex]A=25*15[/tex]...................................Multiply [tex]25*15[/tex]
[tex]A = 375[/tex]..........................................Final answer
