Question

What is the area, in square inches, of the trapezoid below?6 IN,10.5 IN,10.4

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the area of a trapezoid, you can use the formula:

Area = (1/2)(b1 + b2)h

where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the two parallel bases of the trapezoid and h is the height of the trapezoid.

In this case, b1 = 6 inches, b2 = 10.5 inches, and h = 10.4 inches.

Plugging these values into the formula:

Area = (1/2)(6 + 10.5)(10.4)
Area = (1/2)(16.5)(10.4)
Area = (0.5)(171.6)
Area = 85.8 square inches

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 85.8 square inches.

Answer 2

THAT ISNT RIGHT

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Let's correct it.

To find the area of a trapezoid, we use the formula:

Area = (1/2)(b1 + b2)h

Given that b1 = 6 inches, b2 = 10.5 inches, and h = 10.4 inches, let's plug these values into the formula:

Area = (1/2)(6 + 10.5) * 10.4
Area = (1/2)(16.5) * 10.4
Area = 8.25 * 10.4
Area = 85.8 square inches

Therefore, the correct area of the trapezoid is actually 85.8 square inches.
