A right trapezoid is being designed so that it has two parallel sides of lengths 6 inches and 10 inches. The area of trapezoid is to be 44 square inches. Find the height, h, of the trapezoid.

The height is 5.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is

A = (average parallel side length) * (width or height)

Here we have:

A = (6 + 10)/2      *        (height), or

(height) = (44 in^2) / 8  =  5.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:2+1+5=8

78.40/8=9.80

B=5x9.80=49

C=1x9.80=9.80

So B-C=39.20 more
