Trapezoid – is a geometric figure that has two parallel sides called bases and two non-parallel sides called trapezoid legs. The line connecting the midpoints of the legs is called the median of the trapezoid.
The area of a trapezoid is equal to the product of the sum of its bases divided by two and multiplied by the height.
Our online calculator will help you find the area of a trapezoid using two formulas:
1) where a - this is the upper base, b - this is the lower base, h - height drawn to the base.
2) where m - this is the median, h - height drawn to the base.
