Question

The area of the trapezium in 240 CM square if the parallel sides are 24 cm and 36 cm long find the distance between them

Answer 1

• Area of trapezium = 1/2 x (sum of parallel sides ) x Height
• Area is given = 240

A/Q, 1/2 x (24+36) x H = 240

⇒  1/2 x  60 x H = 240

⇒ 30 x H = 240

∴ H = 240/30 = 8

• The distance between them = 8 cm

Answer 2

Area of trapezium = 1/2 x (sum of parallel sides ) x Height

Area is given = 240

A/Q, 1/2 x (24+36) x H = 240

⇒  1/2 x  60 x H = 240

⇒ 30 x H = 240

∴ H = 240/30 = 8

The distance between them = 8 cm
