Question

The parallel sides of a trapezium are 10 m and 20 m and distance between them is 4 m. What is the area of tapezium?​

Answer 1

Given :

⬤ Parallel Sides of trapezium are 10 m and 20 m.

⬤ Distance between them is 4 m.

To Find :

⬤ Area of trapezium .

Formula Used :

$\small\sf[\:{Area\:of\:Trapezium=\dfrac{1}{2}\times{(Sum\:of\:all\:Parallel\:Side}\times{h)}\:]}$

Solution :

According to the Formula :

½ × (10 + 20) × 4

½ × 30 × 4

30 × 2

60

Therefore , The Area of the Trapezium is 60 m².

═════════════════════════

Related Formulas :

• Area of Trapezium = ½ (Sum of all Parallel Sides) × h
• Area of Rectangle = l × b
• Area of Square = Side²
• Area of Triangle = ½ × b × h
• Area of Rhombus = ½ × d_1 × d_2
• Area of Circle = πr²
• Area of Parallelogram = b × h

Answer 2

Given:-

• The parallel sides of a trapezium are 10 m and 20 m
• The distance between the parallels is 4 m (i.e altitude or height)

To find:-

• The area of the trapezium

Solution:-

• The formula to find the area of the trapezium when two parallel sides and the distance between them is given.

$\boxed{\bf{\frac{1}{2}\times (sum\ of\ parallel\ sides) \times height}}$

So,

Area = $\frac{1}{2} \times (10+20) \times 4$

Area = $30*2$

Area = 60 m sq.

Hence,

• $\mathbb{The \;area \;of \;the \;trapezium\; is \;60 \;m\; sq.}$
