Trapezoid Calculator

Solve common trapezoid measurements with forward area, entered-leg perimeter, reverse-height, and missing-base modes.

Choose trapezoid measurements

Enter measurements and select Calculate.

Trapezoid-specific solving

Area = (a+b)h÷2 and midsegment = (a+b)÷2. Reverse modes solve h = 2A÷(a+b) or b = 2A÷h−a.

Geometry boundary

Entered-leg mode reports perimeter from the supplied side lengths without asserting compatibility or assuming an isosceles trapezoid. Invalid reverse-solved bases are rejected.

Worked example

The editable example values above demonstrate the formula and expose each assumption used in the result.
