If x 8 units y 3 units and h 10 units find the area of the trapezoid shown above using decomposition A 110 square units B 80 square units C 95 square units D 1 class=

Respuesta :

apologiabiology
if by decomposition you mean breaking it ino parts then

break it itno 2 triangles and 1 rectangle

left to right

triangle with base y and height h
h=10
y=3
area of traignel=1/2bh
aera=1/2(10)(3)
area=5(3)
area=15

rectangel of legnth x and height h
area=legnth timwe width
x=8
h=10
area=8 times 10
aera=80


last triangle
should be same as other sinces same base (y) and same height (h)
15

add
15+80+15=120
Panoyin
A = ¹/₂h(b₁ + b₂)
A = ¹/₂(10)(3 + 14)
A = 5(22)
A = 110 units²

The answer is A.
