Question

Length of the two parallel sides of a trapezium are 8.5 cm and 11.5 cm
respectively and its height is 4.2 cm, find its area.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

42 sq.cm

Step-by-step explanation:

area of trapezium = 1/2 * sum of length of parallel sides * height

1/2. ×(8.5 + 11.5) × 4.2

1/2 × 20 × 4.2

10 × 4.2

42 sq.cm

Answer 2

Trapezoid

SOLVE FOR area

a = base = 8.5

b = base = 11.5

c= height = 4.2

solution = a+b/2 h = 8.5 + 11.5 / 2 .4.2 = 42 cm
