Question

Find the area of a trapezium whose parallel sides are 35 cm and 23 cm long and distance between them is 15 cm.

Answer 1

Heya !!




Parallel sides of trapezium = 35 cm and 23 cm.




Distance between two parallel sides = 15 cm.



Area of trapezium = 1/2 × ( Sum of parallel sides ) × ( Distance between them ).

=> 1/2 × ( 35 + 23 ) × 15

=>( 1/2 × 58 × 15 ) cm²

=> 435 cm².

Answer 2

Given Length of the parallel sides are 35cm and 23cm.

Given distance between them is 15cm.

We know that Area of trapezium = (1/2) * (Sum of parallel sides) * (Altitude).

= > (1/2) * (35 + 23) * (15)

= > (1/2) * (58) * (15)

= > 29 * 15

= > 435cm^2.

Therefore, the area of trapezium = 435cm^2.

Hope this helps!
