Question

If the area of a trapezium is 28 m², and two parallel sides are 8 m and 60 dm
respectively, find the altitude.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

given,area of the trapezium=28cm^2

one of the parallel sides=8m

another parallel side=60dm=60÷10m=6m

let altitude be x m

therefore,1÷2×(6+8)×x=28

1÷2×14×x=28

7×x=28

x=4m
