  1. 7-4 Area of Trapezoids, Rhombuses, and Kites L.E.Q. How do you find the areas of Trapezoids, Rhombuses, and Kites?

  2. Height of a Trapezoid • The perpendicular distance h between the bases.

  3. Area of a Trapezoid • The area of a trapezoid is half the product of the height and the sum of the bases.

  4. Example 1: Real-World Connections • Approximate the area of Arkansas by finding the area of the trapezoid shown.

  5. Example 2: Finding Area Using a Right Triangle. • Find the area of trapezoid PQRS. Leave your answer in simplest radical form.

  6. 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.

  7. Example 3: Finding the Area of a Kite. • Find the area of kite KLMN.

  8. Example 4: Finding the area of a Rhombus. • Find the area of rhombus ABCD.

  9. Homework: • Pgs 376 – 377 #s 2-22 even, 26-30 even.
