B ft2
C ft2
D. 310 ft2
Example 1

14. Area of a Trapezoid
OPEN ENDED Miguel designed a deck shaped like the trapezoid shown below. Find the area of the deck.
Read the Test Item
You are given a trapezoid with one base measuring 4 feet, a height of 9 feet, and a third side measuring 5 feet. To find the area of the trapezoid, first find the measure of the other base.
Example 2

15. Area of a Trapezoid
Solve the Test Item
Draw a segment to form a right triangle and a rectangle. The triangle has a hypotenuse of 5 feet and legs of ℓ and 4 feet. The rectangle has a length of 4 feet and a width of x feet.
Example 2

16. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find ℓ.
Area of a Trapezoid
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find ℓ.
a2 + b2 = c2 Pythagorean Theorem
42 + ℓ2 = 52 Substitution
16 + ℓ2 = 25 Simplify.
ℓ2 = 9 Subtract 16 from each side.
ℓ = 3 Take the positive square root of each side.
Example 2

17. Answer: So, the area of the deck is 30 square feet.
Area of a Trapezoid
By Segment Addition, ℓ + x = 9. So, 3 + x = 9 and x = 6. The width of the rectangle is also the measure of the second base of the trapezoid.
Area of a trapezoid
Substitution
Simplify.
Answer: So, the area of the deck is 30 square feet.
