Question

A trapezium with an area of 5100 cm2 has the perpendicular distance between the two parallel sides of 60m . if one of the parallel sides be 40m. find the length of the other side.

Answer 1

Hope it hlp you......

Answer 2

Answer:

The length of the other side of the trapezium is 130 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: let one parallel sides be X metre

Step 2: Other side is 40 metre

Height of the trapezium=60 metre

Are of the trapezium=5100 cm2

Step 3:

Area of trapezium = 1/2 x (sum of both sides) x h

=1/2 x (40+x) x 60 = 5100

Step 4: To find the Value of x

=(40+x) x 30=5100

=1200+30x=5100

=30x=5100-1200

30x=3900

Step 5:

x=3900/30

X=130 m

The value of X is 130 metre
