Hello There!!
We know,
[tex] \text{Area of trapezoid =} \frac{a + b}{2} h[/tex]
Here, a and b are base and h is height
Inserting The Values
[tex] = \frac{37 + 15}{2} \times 18 \\ \\ = \frac{52}{2} \times 18 \\ \\ = \cancel\frac {52}{2} \times 18 \\ \\ = 26 \times 18 \\ = 468 \: \text{ft²}[/tex]
Hope This Helps
