Answer:
A = 16.5 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
the area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] h (b₁ + b₂ )
where h is the perpendicular height between bases and b₁, b₂ the bases
here h = 3, b₁ = 7 , b₂ = 4 , then
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 3 × (7 + 4) = 1.5 × 11 = 16.5 cm²
