Understanding the Math
The Trapezoid Area Calculator computes the result using fundamental principles of mathematics. Calculate the area of a trapezoid.
Formula Definition
Result = ((a + b) ÷ 2) × h
This formula is applied directly to the inputs provided above. Ensure all units are consistent (e.g., all lengths in meters) before calculation to guarantee accuracy.
Example Problem
Given:
- Base (a) = 3
- Base (b) = 13
- Height (h) = 11
Solution:
Substitute values into the formula:
Result = ((3 + 13) ÷ 2) × 11
Quick Notes
- Double-check input units. Inconsistent units (e.g. feet vs meters) will yield incorrect results.
- Calculations are performed with high-precision floating point arithmetic.
