Step-by-step explanation:
Let ABCD be a trapezium with,
AB∥CD
AB=25m
CD=10m
BC=14m
AD=13m
Draw CE∥DA. So, ADCE is a parallelogram with,
CD=AE=10m
CE=AD=13m
BE=AB−AE=25−10=15m
In ΔBCE, the semi perimeter will be,
s=2a+b+c
s=214+13+15
s=21m
Area of ΔBCE,
A=s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)
=21(21−14)(21−13)(21−15)
=21(7)(8)(6)
=7056
=84m2
Also, area of ΔBCE is,
A=21×base×height
84=21×15×CL
1584×2=CL
CL=556m
Now, the area of trapezium is,
A=21(sumofparallelsides)(height)
A=21×(25+10)(556)
A=196m2
Therefore, the area of the trapezium is 196m2.
