What is a trapezoid?

Back

A trapezoid is a four-sided figure (quadrilateral) with at least one pair of parallel sides.

Front

What is the height of a triangle?

Back

The height of a triangle is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex.

Front

If the base of a triangle is 10 cm and the height is 5 cm, what is the area?

Back

Area = (1/2) × Base × Height = (1/2) × 10 cm × 5 cm = 25 cm²
