Here's your answer!!

_______________________________

It's given that,

Length of parallel sides are 25cm and 10cm.

And length of non-parallel sides are 14 cm and 13 cm.

We have to find it's area , to find the area of Trapezium we must have sum of parallel sides and height of Trapezium.

We have parallel sides , but we have to find height.

So,

We will first drawn AE // BC
=> AE =BC= 13 cm

Now,

In ∆ ADE,
=>AD =14 cm (Given)
=>AE =13 cm

And,

=>DE=DC-EC
 = > 25 - 10 \\ = > 15cm

Therefore,

 = > s = \frac{a + b + c}{2}

 = > s = \frac{14 + 13 + 15}{2}

 = > s = \frac{42}{2}

 = > s = 21

Therefore,

Area of ∆ADE =

 = > \sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}

 = > \sqrt{21(21 - 14)(21 - 13)(21 - 15)}

 = > \sqrt{21 \times 7 \times 8 \times 6}

 = > \sqrt{7 \times 3 \times 7 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 2}

 = > 7 \times 3 \times 2 \times 2

 = > 84

Hence,

Area of ∆ ADE = 84 cm^2

 = > \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height = 84 {cm}^{2}

 = > \frac{1}{2} \times 15 \times height = 84

So,

 = > height = \frac{84 \times 2}{15}

 = > height = \frac{168}{15} = \frac{56}{5} = 11.2
Hence,

Height of Trapezium= 11.2cm

Now, we can easily find the area of Trapezium.

Area of Trapezium=

 = > \frac{1}{2} \times (sum \: of \: parallel \: side) \times height

 = > \frac{1}{2} \times (10 + 25) \times 11.2

 = > \frac{1}{2} \times 35 \times 11.2

 = > 196 \: {cm}^{2}

Hence,

Area of Trapezium is 196 cm^2

Given:Length of parallel sides are 25cm and 10cm.

And,

length of non-parallel sides are 14 cm and 13 cm.

To find:  area of Trapezium

Soln: we have to find height.

So,

We will first drawn EC // AB

=> EC =AB= 13 cm

Now,

In ∆ CED,

=>CD =14 cm

=>EC =13 cm

And,

=>ED=AD-AE

= > ED=25-10

= > ED=15cm

Therefore,

= >s=a+b+c/2

= >s=21cm

Therefore,

Area of ∆CED =√{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

                        = √{21(21-13)(21-14)(21-15)}

                        =   84cm²

So,

     Area of ∆CED  =   84cm²

     1/2  ×  base × height =   84cm²

     1/2  × 15cm  × height =   84cm²

     height  = 11.2cm

Now,

     Area of Trapezium=(sum of parallel side)/2×height

                                    =(25+10)/2×11.2

                                    = 196 cm²
