Respuesta :
The answer is C) 57.46cm2
To find the area of a trapezoid you add together the parallel lines and times the answer by the height. Then you divide it by 2.

Answer: C. [tex]57.46\ cm^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of trapezoid is given by :-
[tex]\text{Area}=\dfrac{1}{2}(a+b)h[/tex], where a and b area the bases and h is height of the trapezoid.
Given: The length of the bases are 9.2 cm and 7.7 cm.
The height of the trapezoid = 6.8 cm
Now, the area of a trapezoid will be:-
[tex]\text{Area}=\dfrac{1}{2}(9.2+7.7)(6.8)\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Area}=57.46\ cm^2[/tex]
Hence, the area of a trapezoid = [tex]57.46\ cm^2[/tex]
