Answer:

(a)

Shortest Side of the trapezoid =6 yds

Longest Side =8 yds

(b)42 Square Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

In the Trapezoid, Width =6 yd

Since the shortest side of the playground and its width have the same dimension, then:

  • Shortest Side of the trapezoid =6 yd
  • Longest Side =6+1+1=8 yd

Part B

Area of the Playground

In the trapezoid

a=6 yd, b=8 yd, h=Width=6 yd

Area of a trapezoid[tex]=\frac{1}{2}(a+b)h[/tex]

[tex]Therefore: Area=\frac{1}{2}(6+8)*6\\=14*3\\=42$ Square Yards[/tex]
