Trapezoid Area Calculator

Trapezoid Area

Calculate the area of a trapezoid from two parallel bases and height.

Method: The calculator averages the two bases and multiplies by height.

Understanding Trapezoid Area

1. What This Calculator Measures

A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides, called bases.

2. How the Calculation Works

The calculator averages the two bases, then multiplies by height to measure the space inside the trapezoid.

3. Formula or Rule Used
