[tex]Area=\frac{(a + b)}{2} \cdot h\\144 = \frac{(12 + 8)}{2} \cdot h\\144 = \frac{20}{2} \cdot h\\144 = 10h\\h = \frac{144}{10} = \frac{72}{5}[/tex]

Solution


h=14.4m

Using the formula

A= 12 meter
B= 8 meter
H = 14.4 m

Trapezoid
Solve for height
h=14.4m


Unit Conversion:
a=12m
b=8m
A=144m²

Using the formula
A=a+b/2h

Solving for H =
