Trapezoid 65644

In an isosceles trapezoid, the base ratio a / c = 9/7, arm b = 10 cm, height v = 8 cm. Calculate the area of the trapezoid in cm².

Correct answer:

S =  384 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

a:c = 9:7 b=10 cm v=8 cm  b2= v2 + x2  x=b2v2=10282=6 cm  a=x+c+x a=9/7 c a=6+c+6 a=9/7 c  ac=12 7a9c=0  Pivot:Row1Row2 7a9c=0 ac=12  Row271 Row1Row2 7a9c=0 0.29c=12  c=0.2857142912=42 a=70+9c=70+9 42=54  a=54 c=42  S=2a+c v=254+42 8=384 cm2
