Answer:
A = 89.2 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] h (b₁ + b₂ )
where h is the perpendicular height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases
Here h = 8, b₁ = 6.6, b₂ = 15.7 , then
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 8 × (6.6 + 15.7) = 4 × 22.3 = 89.2 in²
