Question

the length of parallel sides of a Trapezium are 10cm and 6cm, the distance between the parallel sides is 4cm, then it's area is

Answer 1

area of trapezium = 1/2*sum of parallel sides*distance between parallel sides
=1/2*16*4
=32 square cm

Answer 2

Heya ☺

Given that

length of 1st side = 10cm

length of 2nd side = 6cm

height = 4cm

area = ?

Solution

Area of a trapezium = 1/2 × sum of parallel sides × height

= 1/2 × (10+6) × 4

= 1/2 × 4 × 16

= 32cm^2
