    \$\begingroup\$ @CatsAreFluffy Well, since you can make a trapezoid out of triangles, you can conclude that you can make trapezoids out of trapezoids. In fact, if you look at the triangles of height 3 and 7, you can kinda see the same pattern repeated with large trapezoids. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Apr 14, 2016 at 16:39
