Question 174624: A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides called the bases of the trapezoid. The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A= h/2(b^1+b^2) where h represents the measure of the altitude to the bases, and b^1 and b^2 represent the measures of the bases. Find the area of a trapezoid if h= 5.25 cm, b^1 = 12.75 cm, and b^2 = 9.50 cm. Express your answer to the number of significant digits determined by the given data.
