✔✔Heya here is ur answer ☺!!
__________________________
__________________________
Given,
area of trapezium= 850sq.cm
one side = 64cm
height = 17cm
let another side be x
from the problem,
Area of trapezium = 1/2× h(a+b)
=> 850= 1/2×17 (64+x)
=> 850×2/17 = 64+x
=> 100= 64+x
=> 100-64= x
=> 36= x
therefore the length of other parallel side is 36cm....
Thank you
Hope it helps uh☺

Let the length of other side be X cm.
Distance between two parallel side's = 17 cm.
Area of trapezium = 850
1/2 × ( Sum of parallel sides ) × Distance between parallel sides = 850
1/2 × ( 64 + X ) × 17 = 850
64 + X = 50 × 2
X = 100 - 64
X = 36 cm.
Hence,
Length of other parallel sides = X = 36 cm.
