Question 1083748: determine the volume of a right trapezoidal cylinder whose bases are B=18m and b=9m, height is h=5m and length is l =26m

Area of any right cylinder = (Area of bottom) times (length)

The area of a trapezoid is

A=expr%28h%2F2%29%28B%2Bb%29

Substitute h=5, B=18, b=9, to calculate the area of the base.

Then multiply that by the length l=26.

That will give you the answer in cubic meters.
