Question

The area of trapezium is 180m square and the distance between the two parallel side is 12m if one of the parallel is double the other find the measure of the parallel side

Answer 1

first parallel side is equals to 10 m and second parallel side is equals to 20 m

Answer 2

ar = 180 m

h = 12 m

let one be x

then another be 2x

ar = 1/2 H(a+b)

ar=1/2 *12(2x+x)

180=18x

x = 10

one is 10 and another is 20
