Answer 1

Answer:

We can determine from their equations whether two lines are parallel by comparing their slopes. If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different, the lines are parallel. If the slopes are different, the lines are not parallel. Unlike parallel lines, perpendicular lines do intersect.

Answer 2

Given: parallel sides of a trapezium=10 cm and 16 cm.

Distance between them is height(h)= 8 cm.

Solution: therefore by the formula:

Area of a Trapezium=1/2×(Sum of parallel sides)×h

So area= 1/2×(10+16)×8 cm^2= 1/2×26×8 cm^2=13×8 cm^2= 104 cm^2 answer.
