COORDINATE GEOMETRY Find the area of trapezoid $P Q R T$ given the coordinates of the vertices. $$P(0,3), Q(3,7), R(5,7), T(6,3)$$
Added by Juan S.
Step 1
Given that the coordinates of the vertices are $P(0,3), Q(3,7), R(5,7), T(6,3)$, the distance between the parallel sides is $7 - 3 = 4$. Show more…
