    Trapezoid (Area & Perimeter) Calculator

    getcalc.com's trapezoid calculator is an online basic geometry tool to calculate area & perimeter of trapezoidal plane or shape, in both US customary & metric (SI) units.

    Steps to Find Area & Perimeter of a Trapezoid

    The step by step workout for how to find what is the area and perimeter of a trapezoid.Workout :
    step 1 Address the formula input parameter and values
    Base 1 = 10 in
    Base 2 = 5 in
    Side 1 = 10 in
    Side 2 = 8 in

    step 2 Apply base values and side values in below Area formula
    Height h = √s1² - (b2 - b1
    = √10² - (5 - 10)² in
    = √10² - (-5)² in
    = √100 - (25) in
    = √75 in
    Height h = 8.6603 in

    step 3 Substitute height value in Trapezoid Area formula
    Area A = h (b1 + b2)2
    = 8.6603 (10 + 5)2in²
    = 8.6603 x 152in²
    = 129.90452in²
    Area = 64.9519 in²

    step 4 Apply base values and side values in perimeter formula
    Perimeter P = b1 + b2 + s1 + s1
    = 10 + 5 + 10 + 8 in
    Perimeter P = 33 in

    Trapezoid & Formulas

    Trapezoid is a two dimensional plane or geometric shape represents quadrilateral with either no sides parallel to each other or with only two sides are parallel to each other in SI & US customary units measurements. The parallel sides and other two sides are called the base and lateral sides respectively. K-12 students may refer the below formulas to know what are all the parameters are being used to find the area & perimeter of trapezoid.
