Question

Find the subof the bases of a trapezium whose altitude is 0.11m and whose area is o. 55m square

Answer 1

area of trapezium = 1/2 * height ( sum of bases )
0.55 = 1/2 * 0.11 ( sum of bases )
( sum of bases ) = 0.55 / ( 1/2* 0.11 )
= 55/100 / 1/2*11/100
= 55/100 * 200/11 = 10m

Hence the sum of bases of the trapezium is 10 m
