Question

The area of a trapezium is 0.88 m sq., If its parallel sides are 1.2 m and 1 m. Find the height.

Answer 1

The area of a trapezium is 0.88 m sq., If its parallel sides are 1.2 m and 1m

the height will be

H=0.8m

Answer 2

Area= 0.88m²

Length of a and b= 1.2m and 1

$area \: \frac{h(a + b)}{2} \: \\ 0.88 = \frac{h(1.2 + 1)}{2} \\ 0.88 \times 2 = h \times 2.2 \\ 1.76 = h \times 2.2 \\ h = \frac{1.76}{2.2} \\ \\ h = 0.8$
