Answer 2

Answer :

24m

Explanation :

We know that,

Area of a trapezium :

→ ½(a + b)h

We are given with,

• Area = 1380m²
• (a + b) is the sum of parallel sides - 52m & 63m.

And we need to find the distance between parallel sides(h)

So,

→ 1380 = ½(52 + 63)h

→ 1380 = ½(115)h

→ 1380 = 57.5h

→ 1380/57.5 = h

→ 24 = h

∴ The distance between the parallel sides is 24m.
