A lawn in the shape of a trapezoid has an area of 1,833 square meters. The length of the other base is 42 meters. What is the height of the trapezoid? PLEASE DO STEP BY STEP

The area of a trapezoid can be found with this formula:

[tex]A=\frac{1}2(b_1+b_2)h[/tex]

Where b1 and b2 are the bases and h is the height.

If we plug in what we know we can solve for the height.
We know that b1 = 52, b2 = 42, and A = 1833. Let's solve.

[tex]1833=\frac{1}2(52+42)h\\1833=\frac{1}2\times94h\\1833=47h\\\boxed{h=39\ m}[/tex]
