You can start with the formula for the area of a trapezoid:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight_green%28A%5Bt%5D+=+%28b%5B1%5D%2Bb%5B2%5D%29%2F2%2Ah%29\"$ where $\"b%5B1%5D\"$ is the length of one base and $\"b%5B2%5D\"$ is the length of the other base and h = height.
\n" ); document.write( "Solve this equation for h:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"h+=+2A%5Bt%5D%2F%28%28b%5B1%5D%2Bb%5B2%5D%29%29\"$ Now substitute: $\"A%5Bt%5D+=+32\"$ , $\"b%5B1%5D+=+6\"$ , and $\"b%5B2%5D+=+10\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"h+=+2%2832%29%2F%28%286%2B10%29%29\"$ Evaluate the right side.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"h+=+64%2F16\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28h+=+4%29\"$ ft. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
