Answer:
[tex]Area = 1560ft^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for playground
Required
Determine the area
The playground is a trapezoid. So;
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}(Sum\ parallel\ sides) * Height[/tex]
From the attachment, the parallel sides are: 68ft and 36ft
The height is: 30ft
So, the area is:
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}(68ft + 36ft) * 30ft[/tex]
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}(104ft) * 30ft[/tex]
[tex]Area = 52ft * 30ft[/tex]
[tex]Area = 1560ft^2[/tex]
