Start by graphing the points and joining them together
After joining them we can divide the figure into 2 figures.
find the area for both figures apart and then add them together
rectangle
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=2\cdot1 \\ A=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
triangle
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=2\cdot\frac{2}{2} \\ A=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Add both areas togethe
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_t=2+2 \\ A_t=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]
The area of the trapezoid is 4 square units
