b1 = base 1
b2 = base 2
h = height
Height – the perpendicular distance between the 2 bases.
A = ½ h(b1 + b2)Area of trapezoid
Height

Example 1
Area of a Kite or Rhombus
Rhombus› 4 equal sides.› Diagonals bisect
each other.› Diagonals are
perpendicular.
Kite› Adjacent sides are
congruent› No sides //.› Diagonals are
perpendicular
