Find the area of the trapezoid by decomposing it into other shapes. a) 56 cm2 b) 60 cm2 c) 64 cm2 d) 72 cm2 eli

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure N 1 to better understand the problem

we know that

The trapezoid can be decomposed into two right triangles and a rectangle

see the attached figure N 2

so

The area of the trapezoid is equal to the area of two right triangles and one rectangle

The area of trapezoid is equal to
