Right Trapezoid
TrapezoidRight
A right trapezoid is a trapezoid having two right angles. As illustrated above, the area of a right trapezoid is
A = ah_2-1/2(h_2-h_1)a
(1)
= 1/2a(h_1+h_2).
(2)
A right trapezoid has perimeter
| P=a+h_1+h_2+sqrt(a^2+(h_2-h_1)^2) |
(3)
|
and diagonal lengths
p = sqrt(a^2+h_1^2)
(4)
q = sqrt(a^2+h_2^2).
