The formula for the area of a trapezoid is : area = (a + b)/2 x height, where a and b are the top and bottom bases.

Using the provided information you have:

25 = (a + b)/2 x 5

Solving for a+ b the first step is divide both sides by 5:

5 = (a + b)/2

Second step is to multiply both sides by 2:

10 = (a +b)

The sun of the bases would be 10 units.

Answer:

10 units
