Question

find the two parallel side of trapezium whose area is 1.6 metre squared altitude is 10 dm and one of the parallel side is longer than the other by 8 dM​

Answer 1

Answer:

Thus the parallel sides are

1.2 m and 1.8+0.8=2.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

h=10 dm=1 m

the parallel sides are

x and x+8dm=x+0.8 m

Area =(x+x+0.8 )*1*1/2=1.6

2x+0.8=3.2

2x=2.4

x=1.2

Thus the parallel sides are

1.2 m and 1.2+0.8=2 m
