Answer 1

Answer:

Area is

$170 {cm}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezium

$= \frac{1}{2} \times h \times(a + b)$

$= \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times (20 + 14)$

$= \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 34$

$170 {cm}^{2}$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

trapezium area =h/2 (a + b)

= 10/2 ( 20 +14 )

=5 x 34

=170

=170cm²
