1 Objectives: 1) To find the area of a trapezoid, rhombus or a kite

2  The height of a trapezoid is the perpendicular distances h between the bases.  A = 1/2h(b₁ +b₂)

3  Example: Find Area  A car window is shaped like a trapezoid shown. Find the area of the window.

4  Theorem: Area of a Rhombus or a Kite  The area of a rhombus or a kite is half the product of the lengths of its diagonals.  A = 1/2d₁d₂

5  Example: Finding the Area of a Kite  Find the area of kite ABCD.

6  Example: Find the Area of a Rhombus  Remember the properties of a rhombus!!  Find the area of rhombus EFGH.

7  Homework  Handed-In  Page 376 #1-7, 14-21, 42, 43
