Question

The area of tapizium is 850sq.cm.One of the parallel side is 64cm and the perpendicular distance between the parallel side is 17cm. Find the length of other parallel side.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular distance=altitude

area=1/2h(a+b)

        1/2*17(64+b)=850

         64+b=850*2/17

         64+b=100

         b=36 cm

*the other parallel side of the trapezium measures 36cm
