Answer:

Yes, it is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take a Trapezium with its parallel sides a and b, and distance between them as h.  Let's make a copy of it and place each other vertically flipped as shown in the attached figure.

What we get is a parallelogram with parallel sides (a + b) and distance between the is h.

Area of the parallelogram = (a + b)xh

Therefore, Twice the area of the Trapezium = (a + b)xh

Therefore, (a + b) = Twice the area of the Trapezium/h
