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
The formula for area of a trapezoid is [tex](b_{1} + b_{2})*\frac{1}{2} h=A[/tex]
b=base
h=height AKA altitude.
A=area.
Base 1 is 483.
Base 2 is 405.
483+405=888
888×320 (h) = 284160
284160 × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 142080
The approximate area of Nevada is 142080 square miles.
♡ Hope this helps! ♡
