Question

area of trapezium is 130 CM square and its altitude is 10 cm find the sum of parallel sides​

Answer 1

Answer:

the sum of parallel sides will be 26 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A= 1/2(a+b)*h

130= 1/2(a+b)*10

130*2= (a+b)*10

260= (a+b)*10

260/10= (a+b)

26= a+b

hence, sum of parallel sides is 26 cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Here,

Area of the trapezium = 130 cm²

Altitude/height= 10 cm

Let The parallel sides be a and b

Since we know the formula for the area of a trapezium is ½×h× [a+b]

Therefore according to the question,

½×h× [a+b]=130 cm²

=>½×10×[a+b]= 130

=>a+b= 130/5 = 26 cm

[cancelling 2 and 10 to get 5 and dividing 130 by that 5]
