The formula for finding the area of a trapezoid is (base 1 + base 2)/2 then times the height. First, we need to add up the two bases: 16+8=24. Now, divide 24 by 2, which is 12. Now, multiply by the height= 12*6= 72. So, the area of the following trapezoid is 72 inches squared. Hope this helped!                                 
Hello!

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A=1/2h(a+b), where a and b represent the top and bottom. We will plug in our numbers below.

A=0.5·6(16+8)
A=3(16+8)
A=3(24)
A=72

The area is 72 in.²

I hope this helps!
