Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance between the two parallel sides be 'H'

Given

Area of trapezium = 1/2 *H (Sum of parallel sides)

780 m² = 1 / 2 * H (20 m + 40 m)

780 m² = 1/2 * H (60m) [ on taking 2 from left side to right side gets multiplied with 780]

780 m² * 2 = H (60m)

1560 m² =H (60m)

1560 m² / 60 m= H

26 m = H
