EXERCISES
Find the area of trapezium whose parallel sides are 10 cm and 2 m and its altitude is 1.5 m.
The distance between parallel sides of a trapezium is 15 cm and the lengths of parallel sides
18 cm. Find the area of the trapezium.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Area 1 = Area of trapezium = 1/2*(sum of parallel sides)*h = 1/2*(0.1+2)*1.5 = 1.575m^2

Area 2 = Area of trapezium = 1/2*(sum of parallel sides)*h = 1/2*(18+18)*15 = 270cm^2 or 2.7cm^2
