find the area of trapezium whose length of its parallel side is 19 and 24 respectively and distance between them is 40 metre
Answers
Given :
- Parallel Sides of a Trapezium are 19 m and 24 m .
- Distance between them is 40 m .
To Find :
- Area of Trapezium .
Solution :
As Given that the Distance between the Parallel sides is 40 m . So ,
Using Formula :
Putting Values :
So , The Area of Trapezium is 860 m² ...
_______________________
Trapezium :
A Quadrilateral whose one pair of opposite sides are parallel is known as Trapezium .
Properties of Trapezium :
- Sum of all the angles of a trapezium is 360° .
- A Trapezium has two parallel and two non-parallel sides .
- Diagonals of a trapezium bisects each other .
_______________________
☞ Length of 1st parallel side (a) = 19m
☞ Length of 2nd parallel side (b) = 24m
☞ Height (h) of the trapezium = 40m
☞ Area of trapezium = ?
Area of trapezium = (Sum of parallel sides) Height
Area of trapezium = (Sum of parallel sides) Height
☯︎ Putting the values
Area of trapezium = (a + b) h
⇒ Area of trapezium = (19m + 24m) 40m
⇒ Area of trapezium = (43 m) 40m
⇒ Area of trapezium = 43m × 20m
⇒ Area of trapezium = 860m²
∴ Area of trapezium is 860m².
• A trapezium is a type of quadrilateral whose sum of all angles is 360°.
• One pair of sides are parallel in trapezium.
• Other pair of sides are non parallel.
• Diagonals of trapezium bisects each other.
