What is a trapezoid?

It is defined as the quadrilateral having four sides in which two sides are parallel to each other, it is a 2-dimensional geometry.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

We know, the area of the trapezoid:

[tex]\rm Area = \dfrac{(a+b)}{2} \times h[/tex]

h can be calculated using Pythagoras theorem:

h = √(17² - 8²)

h = 15 m

[tex]\rm Area = \dfrac{(12+20)}{2} \times 15[/tex]


Area = 240 square meters

Number of cans = 240/100 = 2.4

Each can cost 19.75

Total cost = 2.4×19.75 = £47.4

Thus, the total cost of cans is £47.4 if One can of weedkiller cover 100 square meters and each can costs 19.75
