Question

The area of trapezium is 12 sq.M if its height be 3m find the sum of its parallel sides

Answer 1

Given :

Area = 12 m²

Height = 3 m

Now ,

Area of a trapezium = 12 m²

1/2× 3× Sum of parallel sides = 12

3/2 × Sum of parallel sides = 12

Sum of parallel sides = 12×2/3

= 4×2 = 8 m

The sum of parallel sides is 8 m .

Answer 2

Hey!!
Here is your answer..

Area of trapezium=> 12sq.m
Height => 3 m
Sum of parallel sides => ?

$\textbf{Area of trapezium=>} \\ \textbf{12sq.m }\\ \textbf{Height => 3 m} \\ \textbf{Sum of parallel sides =>} \\ \textbf{?}$

Area of Trapezium =>
$\frac{1}{2} \times sum \: of \: parallel \: sides \times \\ height$

$12 = \frac{1}{2}\times \: sum \: of \: parallel \: sides\times \: \\ 3$

$\frac{12 \times 2}{3} = sum \: of \: parallel \: sides$

$\frac{24}{3} = 8$

Hence, The sum of parallel sides is 8 m.
