Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Define x:
Let one the length of the parallel side be x
The other is x + 16
Solve x:
Area of a trapezium = 1/2 ( a + b ) h
300 = 1/2 (x + x + 16) (15)
300 = 15/2 (2x + 16)
600 = 15(2x + 16)
600 = 30x + 240
30x = 360
x = 12
Find the length of the parallel sides:
one side = x = 12 m
the other side = x + 16 = 12 + 16 = 28 m
Answer: The 2 lengths are 12m and 28m
