Question

The ratio of the length of the parallel sides of a trapezium is 5:3 and the distance be
hem is 16cm. If the area of the trapezium is 960 cm,find the length of the parallel sides​

Answer 1

Answer:

answer is are as follows

Step-by-step explanation:

let the one parallel side be. = 5x. and the second side be =3x area of trapezium = 1/2 ( sumof parallel side ) ×h. area= 1/2(5x+3x)×16. 250=1/2(8x)×16. 250×2 (8x)×16. 500/16 =8x 500/16×2 =x 250= x so one parallel side be 1250 and second be 750. sorry unit lagadena app
