    When you solve for the area of a trapezoid, you have this formula:

    A = ((a + b) / 2) * h

    where: a & b are the bases; h is the height

    We just plug in the figures on the formula to get the needed information.

    A = 12,052.10 square meters

    a = 82.4 meters

    b = 108.6 meters

    12,052.10 = ((82.4 + 108.6) / 2) h

    12,052.10 = 191/2 * h

    12,052.10 = 95.5 * h

    12,052.10 / 95.5 = h

    126.2 = height

    The height of the parking lot is 126.20 meters.
