Step-by-step explanation:
No trapezoid is attached; so, I will solve on a general note
The area of a trapezoid is:
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}(Sum\ of\ parallel\ sides) * Height[/tex]
Using the attached image as a point of reference;
The parallel sides are: AD (6cm) and BD (12cm)
The height is 4cm
So, the area is:
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * (6cm + 12cm) * 4cm[/tex]
[tex]Area = 18cm * 2cm[/tex]
[tex]Area = 36cm^2[/tex]
