Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is A = (b1 + b2)h/2, where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel bases, and h is the height or perpendicular distance between the two bases.

In this case, we are given that b1 = 34, b2 = 46, and h = 30.

Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

A = (34 + 46)*30/2
A = 1,020

Therefore, the area of trapezoid X is 1,020 square units. So, the best choice is C.
