Question

the sum of two parallel side of a trapezium is 50 cent and the perpendicular distance between them is 11 cm find the area of trapezium​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

area of trapezium = sum of two parallel sides / 2 * height

= 50 + 50 / 2 * 11

=50 * 11

=550 sqcm

Answer 2

Given:

✰ The sum of two parallel side of a trapezium = 50 cm

✰ The perpendicular distance between them = 11 cm

To find:

✠ The area of trapezium.

Solution:

We find the area of trapezium by using formula. Putting the values in the formula and doing the required calculations.

Let's find out...✧

✭ Area of trapezium = 1/2 × ( a + b ) × h ✭

Where,

• a and b are the parallel sides of the trapezium and we already have the sum of the two parallel sides, so we will just substitute it's value in the formula.
• h is the height of a trapezium which means the distance between its parallel sides. So we are already provided with the perpendicular distance between them. Thus, we will substitute its value in the formula and then find out the area of trapezium.

Putting the values in the formula, we have:

➥ Area of trapezium = 1/2 × 50 × 11

➥ Area of trapezium = 1/2 × 550

➥ Area of trapezium = 550/2

➥ Area of trapezium = 275 cm²

∴ The area of trapezium = 275 cm²
