Area Of Trapezoids: Calculating the base or height of a trapezoid

The video tutorial explains how to solve trapezoid problems using algebra. It covers two main problems: finding one base (B1) and finding the height of a trapezoid. The instructor demonstrates how to use the trapezoid area formula and algebraic manipulation to solve for unknowns, emphasizing the importance of understanding the formula and applying algebraic techniques to find solutions.

Describe how to derive the height from the area of the trapezoid.

What is the height of the trapezoid in the second problem?

What is the significance of the formula used for calculating the area of a trapezoid?
