Perimeter of the trapezoid
To find the perimeter, you add the lengths and widths of all the sides of the shop.
Hence, the perimeter is
P = (17 + 25 + 17 + 55) in = 114 in.
Therefore, the perimeter is 114 in.
Area
To find the area, you use the formula
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(a+b)h[/tex]
where,
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=25in \\ b=55in \\ h=8in \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(25+55)\times8=80\times4=320in^2[/tex]
Hence, the area of the trapezoid framed shop is 320in².
b) The frame has to do with perimeter and the glass would be the area because the area covers everything inside the frame.
Hence, the answer is Option D.
