Question

find the area of the trapezium whose parallel sides are 80m and 56m and the distance between them is 30m

Answer 1

Answer:

so Area of trapezium is 1/2×( sum of its parallel side) ×height

so =1/2×(80+56) ×30

=1/2×136×30

=136×15

=2040 is the correct answer please follow me

Answer 2

GIVEN :-

• The parallel sides of trapezium are 80 m and 56 m.
• The distance between the parallel sides is 30 m (Height).

TO FIND :-

• The area of the trapezium.

SOLUTION :-

Trapezium :- A closed figure having two opposite parallel sides and two opposite non parallel sides.

As we know that, area of trapezium is given by,

⇒ Area = 1/2 (sum of parallel sides) × h.

⇒ Area = 1/2(80 + 56) × 30

⇒ Area = 1/2(136) × 30

⇒ Area = 136 × 15

⇒ Area = 2040 m².

Hence the area of trapezium is 2040 m².
