Question

The perimeter of a trapezium is 104 m, its non-parallel sides are 18 m and 22 m,
and its altitude is 16 m. Find the area of trapezium.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of Trapezium=104m

Non parallel sides are 22m and 18m

Let X and Y be the parallel sides of trapezium.

Altitude=16m

Perimeter of trapezium = X+Y+22+18

104=X+Y+40

X+Y=104-40

X+Y=64

Area of trapezium = 1/2 ( sum of parallel side)× altitude

=1/2 (X+Y)×16

=(1/2)64×16

=512 m^2

Therefore Area of Trapezium is 512m^2.
