Question

find the area of trapezium whose parallel sides are 2.5m and 1.3 m and the distance between them is 80 cm

Answer 1

first of all
we have to convert sides into cm
2.5 m = 250cm
1.3 m = 130cm
area of trapezium.
= 1/2 * (sum of parallel sides)*height
=1/2*(250 + 130 ) * 80
= 1/2 * 380*80
=380*40
=15200 sq.cm
