Answer:
[tex]area = 21[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of trapezoid formula:
[tex]area = \frac{a + b}{2} h[/tex]
Given information:
a: 6
b: 8
h: 3
Using the given information,
[tex]area = \frac{6 + 8}{2} 3[/tex]
Add the numbers in the numerator
[tex]area = \frac{14}{2} 3[/tex]
Reduce fraction with 2
[tex]area = 7 \times 3[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]area = 21[/tex]
