Question

Area of trapezium is 720sq m and distance between them is 20m.Find the area if the parallel sides are given in the ratio of 2:1.​

Answer 1

let the parallel side of trap be 2x and x........ area of trap. =720m²=1/2(a+b)*h=720m²=1/2*2x +20m*=720m²=1/2*3x*20m =720m²=3x*10m=720m²=3x=720m²/10m=3x=72m=x=72/3m=x=26
