How to use this Trapezoid Area Calculator 🤔

1. Enter ✎ value for length of base 1 \((b1)\).
2. Enter ✎ value for length of base 2 \((b2)\).
3. Enter ✎ value for height \((h)\).
4. As soon as you enter the required input value(s), the Trapezoid Area is calculated immediately, and displaed in the output section (present under input section).

Trapezoid Area

The area of a Trapezoid can be calculated using the parallel bases whose lengths are b1, and b2, and the height of the Trapezoid which is the perperdicular distance between the parallel sides.

Formula

To calculate the trapezoid area, you can use the following formula.

Area = \({\ \dfrac{ h ( b1 + b2 )}{2}\ }\)
