Calculate the area of the trapezoid, which is not drawn to scale.
explain how you got your answer

Area of trapezoid = 38 in².

Step-by-step explanation:

If we divide this trapezoid in two segments, one in the shape of a triangle and second in a rectangle shape.

So by adding the area of triangle and rectangle we can get the area of trapezoid.

Therefore the area of triangle = 1/2 ×3×4 = 6 in²

and the area of rectangle = 8×4 = 32 in²

Total area of trapezoid = 32 + 6 = 38 in²

Answer is 38 in².

it would be:
