Question

Find the distance between the parallel side of a trapezium if the area is 120cm2 and the length of parallel sides are 18cm and 12cm

Answer 1

Answer:

height = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

area of trapezium = 120 cm²

(a+b)/2 x h = 120

(18+12)/2 x h = 120

30/2 x h = 120

15 x h = 120

h = 120/15

h = 8 cm
