A_(Trapezium ) = ((height × (big side + small side))/2)  A_(Trapezium)  = ((12 × (11 + 6))/2) = 102 m^2     and    Vol = A_(Trapezium)  × Height  Vol = 102 × 8 = 816 m^3
$$\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{Trapezium}\:} =\:\frac{\mathrm{height}\:×\:\left(\mathrm{big}\:\mathrm{side}\:+\:\mathrm{small}\:\mathrm{side}\right)}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{Trapezium}} \:=\:\frac{\mathrm{12}\:×\:\left(\mathrm{11}\:+\:\mathrm{6}\right)}{\mathrm{2}}\:=\:\mathrm{102}\:\mathrm{m}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${and} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{Vol}\:=\:\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{Trapezium}} \:×\:\mathrm{Height} \\ $$$$\mathrm{Vol}\:=\:\mathrm{102}\:×\:\mathrm{8}\:=\:\mathrm{816}\:\mathrm{m}^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$
