Question

find the area of a trapezium whose parallel sides are 57cm and 33 cm and the distance between them is 13 cm​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is your answer in up side.

Answer 2

Given:-

• parallel sides = 57 cm and 33cm
• distance between them or height = 13cm (the distance between the parallel sides of a trapezium is considered its height)

To find:-

• area of this trapezium

Formula:-

$\underline{\boxed{\sf area \;of\; trapezium= \frac{1}{2}×sum\; of \;parallel \;sides×height  }}$

solution:-

→ area = $\sf\dfrac{1}{2}$ × (57+33) × 13

→ area = $\sf\dfrac{1}{2}$ × 90 × 13

→ area = 45 × 13

→ area = 585 cm²

• always keep an eye on the SI units :)
