Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

hey mate here is your answer:

given,

length of parallel sides of trapezium,

let it be :a, b

a=14cm

b=6cm

distance between parallel sides(d)=5cm.

to find,

area of trapezium.

formula required,

$area of trapezium= 1/2(d)(a+ b)$

solution,

area of trapezium= 1/2 (5cm) (14cm+6cm)

area of trapezium= 1/2 (5cm) (20cm)

area of trapezium= 1/2 (100cm^2)

area of trapezium=50cm^2
