Question

1. The shape of the top surface of a table is a trapezium. Find its area
if its parallel sides are 1 m and 1.2 m and perpendicular distance
between them is 0.8 m.​

Answer 1

Answer:

☺️☺️

Area of Trapezium

=

1

2

×

sum of parallel sides

perpendicular distance

Parallel sides = 1 and 1.2 m

And perpendicular distance = 0.8 m

So, Area

Answer 2

Answer:

0.88m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

given parallel sides are= 1&1.2

height =0.8

Area if tpz. =1/2(sum of ||sides)height

1/2(1+1.2)0.8

1/2(2.2)0.8

1x22x8/200

22/25

0.88m^2
