A1 = ½h1d1 ; A2 = ½h2d1

A = ½h1d1 + ½h2d1 h1

h2A = ½ d1(h1 + h2)

Since d2 = (h1 + h2)

A = ½ d1 d2

A = ½ h (b1 + b2)

Practice Problems for 8.2

h = 4 cm

b = 11 cm

A= ½bh; A = ½(11)(4)

A = ½(44) = 22 cm2

h = 6 cm

b2 = 15 cm

b1 = 8 cm

A = ½h(b1 + b2)

A = ½(6)(8 + 15)

A = (3)(23) = 69 cm2
