the area of a trapezium is 0.55 m ^ . if the altitude of the trapezium is 11 cm , find the sum of its lengths of uts parallel sides
Answers
Area of trapezium = 0.55 m^2
Altitude of trapezium = 11 cm = 0.11 m
Equation to find area of a trapezium = 1/2 * (a + b) * h
= 1/2 * ( x ) * h (x is the sum of its parallel sides)
1/2 * x * 0.11 = 0.55 m^2
x/2 = 0.55/0.11
x/2 = 5
x = 5 * 2
x = 10 m
Therefore the sum of the parallel sides is 10 m
