Question

Find the area of a trapezium whose parallel sides are 24cm and 20cm and the distance between them is 15cm. *

Answer 1

Answer:

330 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given:- Parallel sides of a trapezium are 24 cm and 20 cm
2. Distance between the parallel sides is 15 cm

To find :- Area of trapezium = ?

Solution

Area of trapezium

$\frac{1}{2} + \times p1 +p 2 \times h$

= 1÷2 ×24 +20 × 15

= 1÷2 × 44 × 15

Thus the area of the trapezium is 330

${cm}^{2}$
