Question

Find the area of trapezium whose parallel sides are 18cm and 23cm and the perpendicular distance between them is 14cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

$area \: of \: trapezium = \: \frac{1}{2} \times sum \: of \: parallel \: sides \: \times h$

= 1/2 x 18+23 x 14

= 1/2 x 41 x 14

= 1/2 x 574

= 287sqcm.
