Find the area of the shape shown below

The area is 12.5 units squared

Step-by-step explanation: The trapezoid shown has the parallel lines (bases a and b) given and the vertical (perpendicular) height also given.

The area of a trapezoid is calculated as ;

Area = [(a + b)/2] x h

Where a is 2.5, b is 7.5 and h is 2.5

Area = [(2.5 + 7.5)/2] x 2.5

Area = [(10)/2] x 2.5

Area = 5 x 2.5

Area = 12.5 units squared

$4034.40

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
