❍Question :-
The parallel sides of a trapezium are 25cm and 13 cm, it's non- parallel sides are equal each being 10 cm. Find the area of the trapezium ??
❍Formula :-
❍To find
- area of the trapezium.
❍Solution :-
In ΔCEF, CE = 10 cm and EF = 6cm
by Pythagoras theorem:
↬CE² = CF² + EF²
↬ CF² = CE² – EF²
↬CF² = 102 – 62
↬ CF² = 100-36
↬CF² = 64
↬ CF = 8 cm
From the figure we can write, Area of trapezium = Area of parallelogram AECD + Area of area of triangle CEF
Area of trapezium = base × height + 1/2 (base × height)
Area of trapezium = 13 × 8 + 1/2 (12 × 8)
Area of trapezium = 104 + 48 = 152
∴ Area of trapezium = 152 cm²
