Question

The area of a trapezium is 84cm², the distance between the parallel sides is 12cm and
one of the parallel side is 10cm. Find the other parallel side.​

Answer 1

Answer:

area of a trapezium is 84cm²

height =12cm

one of the parallel side= 10cm

let other parallel side = a

Area of trapezium= 1/2(parallel side 1 + parallel side 2) x height

84= 1/2 x (10 + a) x 12

84= 6(10+a)

84/6= 10+a

14-10= a

4cm= a

hope it helps..
