Question

Find the height of the trapezium in which parallel sides are 25 cm and 10 cm and non-parallel sides are 14 m and 13 m

Answer 1

The area of a trapezoid is given by  

Now, it is given that the sum of the parallel sides lengths of the trapezium is 25 cm. and its area is 150 cm².

If the altitude of the trapezium is h, then we can write

⇒ h = 12 cm.

Hence, the altitude of the trapezium is 12 cm.
