Question

Two parallel sides of an isosceles trapezium are 6 cm and 14 cm respectively. If the length of each non parallel side is 5 cm, find the area of the trapezium.​

Answer 1

Answer:

area of trpezium =1/2 *sum of parallel side*height

Answer 2

Answer:we know the area of the trapezium=1/2*sum of parallel sides*height

given

        it is isoceles  

        14-6=8cm

         8/2=4cm

          we have one non parallel side that is 5cm

           so h sq=5sq - 4sq

                 h=3cm

so area=1/2*20*3

              =30cmsq
