find the area of the trapezium whose parallel sides are 30cm and 20cm and the distance between them is 15cm
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that
Area of trapezium = 1/2 × sum of parallel sides × height
= 1/2 × ( 30 + 20 ) × 15
= 1/2 × 50 × 15
= 25 × 15
= 375 cm^2
THANKS!!!
›»› The area of trapezium is 210 cm².
The parallel sides of a trapezium is 20cm and 30cm long.
Distance between them is 15cm.
The area of trapezium = ?
As we know that
→ Area of trapezium = * (sum of parallel sides) * height.
→ Area of trapezium = * (a + b) * h
→ Area of trapezium = * (20 + 30) * 15
→ Area of trapezium = * 50 * 15
→ Area of trapezium = 1 * 25 * 15
→ Area of trapezium = 25 * 15
→ Area of trapezium = 375
Hence, the area of a trapezium is 375 cm².
Extra Brainly Knowledge :
❒ A trapezium is also a quadrilateral, which is defined shape with four unequal sides and two non-parallel sides.
❒ There are some more examples of trapezium or quadrilateral.
Rectangle.
Square.
Rhombus.
Parallelogram.
❒ The sum of all four angles of a trapezium or a quadrilateral is 360°. This statement is call angle sum property of a trapezium or a quadrilateral.
Formula of trapezium :
Area = 1/2 * (sum of parallel sides) * height.
Perimeter = Sum of all sides.
