Question

The area of a Trapezium is 360 m square the distance between two parallel sides is 20 m and one of the parallel sides is 25 m find the other parallel side

Answer 1

Given that
Area = 360 m square
Distance = 20 m
One parallel side = 25 m
Second parallel side = ?
Let the other parallel side be x.
We know that according to formula
Area of trapezium = 1/2 × sum of parallel sides × distance between them
360 = 1/2 × 25+ x × 20
360×2/20 = 25 + x
36 = 25 + x
36 - 25 = x
11 = x
Hence, the other parallel side is 11 m.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

area of trapezium = 360m

height = 20m

'a' side = 25m

'b' side = ?

EXPLANATION:

Area = 1/2*h*(a+b)sq.units

               =

360sq.m = 1/2*20*(25+b)

=1/2*20*(25+b)=360sq.m

so cancel the half and the distance and u will get

2 divided by 20 is 10

then we have 10*(25+b)

u have to multiply 10*25

b=10*25=250

so there is ur ans

b=250m

hope this helps u

tq and have a nice day
