A playground is in the shape of a trapezoid, with the longer parallel side twice as long as the shorter side and the height equal to the length of the shorter side. If the area of the playground is 66,150 m2, find the length of the shorter parallel side.

Area of trapezium = 1/2 * height * ( sum of parallel lines )
66150 = 1/2 * x * ( x + 2x )
