Answer:
we have find out height so we construct DE ⊥ AB and CF ⊥ AB
In ΔADB, as BD ⊥ AD,
By Pythagoras theorem...
(AB)2 = (AD)2 + (BD)2
252 = 152 + (BD)2
(BD)2 = 625 - 225 = 400
BD = 20 cm.
Similarly,
AC = 20 cm.
Now, In ΔAED and ΔABD
∠AED = ∠ADB [Both 90°]
ΔAED ~ ΔABD [By Angle-Angle Criteria]
therefore, DE/BD=AD/AB=AE/AD..... ( By property of similar triangles)
As we know (given), AD = 15 cm,
BD = 20 cm
and AB = 25 cm
So, DE/20=15/25
therefore,DE = 12 cm
Also, DE/BD=AE/AD
Therefore, 12/20=AE/15
so, AE=9cm.
Similarly, BF = 9 cm
Now,
DC = EF [By construction]
DC = AB - DE - AE
DC = 25 - 9 - 9 = 7 cm
Also, we know
Area of trapezium= 1/2×(sum of parallel sides)×height.
=1/2×(7+25)×12
=192 cm.sq
Therefore, Area of trapezium = 192cm.sq
