Question

The parallel sides of trapezium area is 25cm ,10cm and distance between them is 11.2cm find the area of the trapezium​

Answer 1

$\huge \underline \mathbb {SOLUTION:-}$

AnswEr:

• The area of the trapezium = 196cm².

Given:

• Height = 11.2 cm
• Parallel side,b1 = 25 cm
• Parallel side,b2 = 10 cm

Need To Find:

• The area of the trapezium = ?

Explanation:

Formula used here:

• Area of trapezium = 1/2 × h × (b1 + b2)

Putting the values according to the given formula:

➠ 1/2 × 11.2 × (25 + 10)cm²

➠ (5.6 × 35)cm²

➠ 196cm²

• Hence, the area of the trapezium = 196cm².

Answer 2

Given:

• Height, h = 11.2 cm
• The parallel side,b1 = 25 cm
• The parallel side,b2 = 10 cm

To find out:

• Find the area of the trapezium.

Formula used:

Area of trapezium = 1/2 × h × ( b1 + b2 )

Solution:

Area of trapezium = 1/2 × h × ( b1 + b2 )

➱ 1/2 × 11.2 × ( 25 + 10 ) cm²

➱(5.6 × 35 ) cm²

➱ 196 cm²
