A map of Nevada in the shape of a trapezoid is shown. The length of one base is 483 miles, the length of the other base is 207 miles, and the length of a side is 405 miles. The length of the altitude is 320 miles. Hien would like to estimate the area of Nevada using a trapezoid. She uses the dimensions shown as approximations. What is the approximate area of Nevada? sq. mi

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find the area of a trapezoid, you add the lengths of the two bases, divide by two, and then multiply by the height.

We add our two bases.

483+207=690

We divide by 2.

690/2=345

We multiply by the height.

345(320)=110,400

Therefore, Hien can estimate that the area of Nevada is 110,400 square miles.

Have a wonderful day! :D
