Question

The area of trapezium is 168cmsq and the height is8 cm if one of the parallel side is longer then others by 6 cm find
The length of each of parallel side

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let one parallel side=x

then other=x+6

Area=(x+x+6)*h/2=168

(2x+6)*8/2=168

4(2x+6)=168

8x+24=168

8x=168-24=144

x=144/8=18

so the length of sides is 16 cm and 24 cm
