Question

In the trapezium ABCD parallel to CD. If AB =8 cm, CD=14cm and distance between the parallel sides is 10 cm, find the area of the trapezium.

Answer 1

area of trapezium = 1/2 ( sum of parallel sides) (altitude)

= 1/2 ( 8+14) ( 10)
= 1/2. ( 22) (10)

= 110

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the trapezium = 1/2 * sum of parallel sides * height

= 1/2 * (8+14) * 10

= 110cm2 ans
