Question

The area of a trapezium is 96 cm^2
. If the lengths of its two parallel sides are

14 cm. Then find the perpendicular distance between parallel sides.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Height = 6.86 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezium = 1/2 * h (Sum of parallel sides)

Area = 96cm^2 (given)

Height = x

Sum of parallel sides = 14 + 14 = 28cm

So, 1/2 *h*28 = 96cm^2

14*h = 96cm^2

h = 96/14 = 6.86 cm (approx)
