Question

The parallel sides of a trapezium are 20m and 30 m and its non-parallel sides are 6m and 8m. Fine the area of the trapezium

Answer 1

20m × 30m ×6×8m how many m will come you will subtract it from6×8 then put the formula of it u will get

Answer 2

Area of Abce=20*6=120sq.m

Area of AED can EB found by heron formula, where 2s =6+10+8=24or s=12

Area of AED [12(12-6) (12-10) (12-8) ]^0.5=[12*6*2*4]^0.5

=24sq m.

Total area of ABCE+AED=120+24=144sq.m
