Answer 1

here what you need, plz follow me

Answer 2

Answer :

2.1 m²

Step-by-step explanation :

Given that ;

Parallel sides are 1.5 m and 2 m.

Distance between them is 1.2 m.

Here,

a = 1.5 m,

b = 2 m,

h = 1.2 m.

Area of Trapezium = 1 / 2 * ( a + b ) * h

                                = 1 / 2*( 1.5 + 2 )*1.2

                                 = 4.2 / 2

                                = 2.1 m²

Hence, the area of trapezium is 2.1 m²
