#54m^2#

#S=4*(15+12)/2# #=2*(15+12)# #=54#

The area of a trapezoid can be calculated using the formula:

[ Area = \frac{{\text{{Sum of bases}} \times \text{{Height}}}}{2} ]

Substituting the given values, the area of the trapezoid is:

[ Area = \frac{{(15 + 12) \times 4}}{2} = \frac{{27 \times 4}}{2} = \frac{{108}}{2} = 54 \text{ square meters} ]

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
