    To find the height, you will utilize the formula for area of a trapezoid. A = h (b1 + b2) / 2. h is the height, b1 is the the first base, and b2 is the second base. When you substitute the information given to us in the question, the equation that needs solved is 37.4 = h (6.4 + 12.3) / 2. You should multiply both sides by 2 to undo the dividing by 2. This gives you 74.8 = h (18.7). To solve for the height, divide both sides by 18.7. This gives us a cross sections height of 4 meters. This is the answer!
