Given:
Bases of a trapezoid are 16.8 yards and 6.9 yards.
The height is 2 yards.
To find:
The area of the trapezoid.
Solution:
We know that, area of a trapezoid is
[tex]Area=\dfrac{\text{Sum of bases}\times \text{Height}}{2}[/tex]
Using this formula, we get
[tex]Area=\dfrac{(16.8+6.9)\times 2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Area=\dfrac{(23.7)\times 2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Area=23.7\text{ yards}^2[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is C.
