Question

the area of trapezium is 560 CM square and pre pendicular distance between parallel side is 14 cm if one of the parallel side is longer than other by 8 cm find the length of parallel side​

Answer 1

Answer:

altitude=14 cm

area of trap. = 560cm^2

one parallel line = x (let) and another =x+8

area of trap = 1/2×(sum of parallel side)×altitude=560cm^2

= 1/2×(x+x+8)×14=560cm^2

= 2x+8=80

= x= 76

one parallel side = x = 36

another parallel side (x+8)= 44
