The parallel sides of a trapezium are 20m and 30m, and its non-parallel sides are 6m and 8m. What is the area of the trapezium?

How does DuckDuckGo know where I am?

Consider a trapezium ABCD with AB=20 m, BC = 6 m, CD = 30 m and DA = 8 m.

Drop a perpendicular from A on CD to meet that line at E. We consider the figure ABCD as a combination of a rectangle ABCE and a triangle AED. <B = <C = 90.

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

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

Area AED = [12(12–6)(12–10)(12–8)]^0.5

= [12*6*2*4]^0.5

= 24 sq m.

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

Let ABCD be the trapezium in which AB is parallel to DC.

Let AB = 30cm, DC=20 cm,and the non parallel sides AD =6cm and BC = 8cm.

Draw perpendiculars DE and CF from D and C to AB respectively. So DE = CF. DC=EF = 20cm.

Let AE = x cm . Then BF = 10-x.

In right triangle ADE DE^2 = AD^2 - AE^2

In right triangle BCF , CF^2 = BC^2 - BF^2

=> AD^2-AE^2 = BC^2-BF^2

=> 36-x^2 = 64 -(10-x)^2 => 20x = 72 => x=3.6

So DE^2 = 36 - 3.6^2 = 36 - 12.96 =23.04

So DE =√23.04 = 4.8 cm

So area of trapezium = (1/2)h(a+b)

= (1/2)×4.8×(30+20) = 2.4×50 =120

Draw CE II AD such that AECD be a parallelogram.

Also,draw CL is Perpendicular EB

Now, AE = CD =20 cm

CE = AD =8 cm

EB = AB-AE = 24 cm - 14 cm

In triangle EBC , (semi perimeter) = 10+8+6 \ 2 cm =12 cm =

Now , area of triangle EBC = √12(12–10)(12–8)(12–6)

=√12*2*4*6 = √6*2*2*4*6

=√6*6^4*4 = 6^4 = 24 ………….(1)

Also, area of triangle EBC = 1\2^10 cm^ CL = 5 cm^CL ………….(2)

FROM (1) and (2) , we get

5 cm^ CL =24

CL = 4.8 cm

Now , area of the trapezium ABCD

= 1\2 ^ (20 30m) ^ 4.8 cm

1\2^ 50^ 4.8 cm = 120
