Question

The area of a trapezium is 850sq.m.One of its sides is 64cm and the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides is 17cm.FIND THE LENTH OF THE OTHER PARALLEL SIDES??

Answer 1

Hey !!! ^_^

Here is your answer

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️


⏩⏩Area of trapezium is given 850 m sq. = 8500 cm sq.

one of it side is 64cm and its perpendicular distance between them is 17cm

Area of trapezium = 1/2 × height × ( sum of it parallel side

Let the other side of trapezium be x


85000 = 1/2 × 17 × ( x + 64 )

85000/17 = (x + 64)/2

5000 × 2 = x + 64

10,000 = x + 64

x = 10,000 - 64

x = 9936


The other side of trapezium be 9936cm ..


I HOPE IT WILL HELP You ☺️✌️

thank you ☺️

Answer 2

Hey there!!

First side = 64 cm

Second side be ' x '

Height = ' 17 cm '

Area of a trapezium = ( 1 ÷ 2 ) ( height ) ( sum of the parallel sides )

Area = ( 1 ÷ 2 ) ( 17 ) ( 64 + x )

85000 = ( 17 ÷ 2 ) ( 64 + x )

( 85000 ) ( 2 ÷ 17 ) = 64 + x

( 5000 ) ( 2 ) = 64 + x

10000 = 64 + x

x = 10000 - 64

x = 9936 cm

Other side = 9936
