The right answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a trapezoid is

$A= \frac{b1+b2(h)}{2}$

-b1 standing for base 1 and b2 for base 2

-and h standing for height

-the bases are the parallel lines in the trapezoid

from there you just plug in the numbers

$A= \frac{68+36(30)}{2}$ make sure you use units (feet, inches, etc.)

from there you solve it

$68+36=104\\\frac{104}{2} = 52\\\\52(30) = 1,560ft^{2}$

There is your answer!
