Answer:
Pink: 48 units sq
Blue: 42 units sq
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a trapezoid: A=(h)(a+b)/2. To see where h, a, and b are located, see the reference image below. Always remember that a is the shorter end and b is the longer end. Since each grid mark goes by 2, we can use the graph to find the missing variables.
PINK trapezoid:
- h = 8, a = 4, b = 8
- A = 8(4 + 8)/2 = 48 units squared
BLUE trapezoid:
- h = 6, a = 4, b = 10
- A = 6(4 + 10)/2 = 42 units squared
Hope this helps!
