Cynthia glued a trapezoid with bases of 9 centimeters and 7 centimeters and a height of 6 centimeters onto a rectangular piece of construction paper that measures 20 centimeters by 24 centimeters. How much of the construction paper is not covered by the trapezoid?
Ok so,,,, first you find the area of a trapezoid which is b1 plus b2 times h over 2 so it is 9 plus 7 times 6 divided by two then you get 48 and you subtract by 20 times 24 bc its the area of rectangle so 480 minus 48 which is 432 cm squared
