Find the median $ m $ of a trapezoid if long base $a = 40$ and short base $b = 31$.
Answer
$m = \frac{ 71 }{ 2 }$
Explanation
To find median $ m $ use formula:
$$ m = \frac{ a + b } { 2 } $$After substituting $ a = 40 $ and $ b = 31 $ we have:
$$ m = \frac{ 40 + 31 } { 2 } $$ $$ m = \frac{ 71 } { 2 } $$ $$ m = \frac{ 71 }{ 2 } $$This page was created using
