a tabletop in the shape of a trapezoid has area an of 6,550 square centimeters. Its longer base measures 115 centimeters, and the shorter base is 85 centimeters. what is the height?
Question
Answer:
To find the missing dimension of the tabletop, the height, you will use the formula for finding the area of a trapezoid and solve for the missing height.A = 1/2 h (b1 + b2)
6550 = 1/2 h (115 + 85)
6550 = 1/2 h (200)
6550 = 100h
100 100
655 = h
The height is 655 cm.
