The area of the figure is 6 cm².
Solution:
The given image have 2 parallel side and 2 non-parallel sides.
Therefore, it is a trapezium.
Top base ([tex]b_1[/tex])= 2 cm
Bottom base ([tex]b_2[/tex]) = 4 cm
Height (h) = 2 cm
Area of the trapezium:
[tex]$A=\frac{1}{2} \times (b_1+b_2)\times h[/tex]
[tex]$A=\frac{1}{2} \times (2+4)\times 2[/tex]
[tex]$A=\frac{1}{2} \times 6\times 2[/tex]
A = 6 cm²
The area of the figure is 6 cm².
