the area of a trapeziun is 112m2 and its height is 16m. if one of the parellel sides is 6cm the length of other parellel side is
Answers
Answer:
I THINK THE ONE SIDE IS 6m NOT 6cm
SO I HAVE SOLVED THE QUESTION WITH 6m length of one parallel side...
AND THE ANSWER IS
The length of other parallel side is 8m
Step-by-step explanation:
AREA OF TRAPEZIUM = Half of the sum of two parallel sides multiply by height of trapezium.
= (a+b) x h
2
Given
- one side 6m
- let another side be x
- the area = 112m^2
- Height = 16m
Now
- Put the values in formula
6+x/2×16 = 112
6+x = 112/16 ×2
x = 14-6
x = 8
- so the value of x is 8m
Hence the other Parallel side is 8m.
Hope you get it Please thank and follow.
Correct Question :-
- The area of a trapeziun is 112m² and its height is 16m. if one of the parellel sides is 6m the length of other parellel side is
Given :-
- Shape = Trapezium
- Area of Trapezium = 112m²
- Height of Trapezium = 16m
- First Parallel Side = 6m
To Find :-
- Length of the Second Parallel Side
Solution :-
⇒ Area = ½ × Height × Sum of Sides
⇒ 112 = ½ × 16 × ( 6 + Parallel Side )
⇒ 112 × 2 = 16 × ( 6 + Parallel Side )
⇒ 224 = 16 × ( 6 + Parallel Side )
⇒ 224 ÷ 16 = 6 + Parallel Side
⇒ 14 = 6 + Parallel Side
⇒ 14 - 6 = Parallel Side
⇒ 8m = Parallel Side
________________
Verification :-
⇒ Area = ½ × Height × Sum of Sides
⇒ 112 = ½ × 16 × ( 6 + 8 )
⇒ 112 = ½ × 16 × 14
⇒ 112 = 8 × 14
⇒ 112 = 112
________________
Therefore, Second Parallel Side of the Trapezium is 8m
