Areas of Trapezoids, Rhombuses, and Kites

How Do You Find the Area of a Trapezoid?

Want to find the area of a trapezoid? If you have the length of each base and the height, you can use them to find the area. In this tutorial, you'll see how to identify those values and plug them into the formula for the area of a trapezoid. Then see how to simplify to get your answer!
How Do You Find the Height of a Trapezoid if You Know the Area and Bases?

Want to find the height of a trapezoid? Already know the area and the length of both the bases? Then you can use the formula for the area of a trapezoid to find that missing measurement! Check out this tutorial to see how!
What is the Formula for the Area of a Trapezoid?

Trying to figure out the formula for the area of a trapezoid? You could start by creating a parallelogram out of two trapezoids. Then, use the formula for the area of a parallelogram to figure out the formula for the area of one trapezoid. This tutorial shows you how!
