Answer 1

I think so that 0.88....''''

Answer 2

Question :-

The shape of the top surface of a table is a trapezium. Find its area if its parallel sides are 1 m and 1.2m and perpendicular distance between them is 0.8 m ?

Given :-

• shape of top surface is trapezium.

• Length of parallel sides = 1m and 1.2m

• perpendicular distance between them = 0.8m

To find :-

• Find the area of trapezium ?

Formula used :-

$=\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \dfrac{1}{2} \times (a + b) \times h$

Solution :-

$= \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \dfrac{1}{2} \times (1.2 + 1) \times 0.8$

$= \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \dfrac{1}{2} \times 2.2 \times 0.8$

$= \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 0.88 {m}^{2}$

___________

Hence, the required area = 0.88 ${m}^{2}$
