Answer :
Hello!
To find the area of a trapezoid you use the equation
[tex] A = \frac{a+b}{2} h[/tex]
A is area
h is height
a and b are the bases
Put in the values we know
[tex]A = \frac{10+6}{2} *15[/tex]
Add
[tex]A = \frac{16}{2} *15[/tex]
Divide
[tex]A = 8 * 15[/tex]
Multiply
A = 120
The answer is 120cm squared
Hope this helps!
