Question

the area of trapezium is 850 sq. cm .one of the parallel side is 64 cm and the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides is 17 cm.Find the length of the parallel side.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the other parallel side be x

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

850 = 1/2 x (64 + x) x 17

64 + x = 850x2/17

64 + x = 100

x = 36 cm

Other parallel side = 36 cm
