Question

-The area of a trapezium is 440 sq. cm. The lengths of the parallel sides are respectively 15 cm and 7 cm .Find the distance between them.

Answer 1

Answer:

According to the Question

Area of the trapezium = 440 sq. cm.

Length of Parallel side a = 15 cm

Length of Parallel side b = 7 cm

Let the Height be x

Area of Trapezium = 1/2 (a+b) × h

440 sq. cm. = 1/2(15+7) × h

440 sq. cm. = 1/2 × 22 × h

440 sq. cm. = 11h cm

440 sq.cm. ÷ 11 cm = h

40 cm = h

Ans. Distance between both parallel side or height is 40 cm
