Given :

⬤ Area of Trapezium is 300 m².

⬤ Perpendicular Distance between two Parallel Sides is 15 m .

⬤ Difference of the Parallel Side is 16 m .

To Find :

⬤ Length of Two Parallel Sides .

Formula Used :

\bf[\:{Area \: of \: Trapezium = \dfrac{1}{2}\:(Sum \: of \: Parallel \: Sides) \times{h}}\:]

  • h = height

Solution :

Let :

  • One Parallel Side be x .
  • Other Parallel Side be x - 16 .

Now :

300 = 1/2 × (x + x - 16) × 15

300 = 1/2 × (2x - 16) × 15

(300 × 2) = 30x - 240

600 = 30x - 240

600 + 240 = 30x

840 = 30x

840/30 = x

28 = x

Therefore , The Value of x is 28 .

Hence ,

One Parallel Side = x

= 28

Other Parallel Side = x - 16

= 28 - 16

= 12

Therefore , The Two Parallel Sides are 28 m and 12 m .

Step-by-step explanation:

______________________________

\text{\Large\underline{\red{Question:-}}}

\Longrightarrow ● The area of a trapezium is 300 m². The perpendicular distance between the two parallel sides is 15 m. If the difference of the parallel sides is 16 m, find the length of the parallel sides.

\text{\Large\underline{\orange{To\ find:-}}}

● In this question we have to find the length of the parallel sides.

\text{\Large\underline{\green{Given:-}}}

\sf We\ have = \begin{cases} \sf\pink{Area\ of\ trapezium\ is\ 300m^{2.}} \\ \\ \sf\pink{Perpendicular\ distance\ between\ two\ parallel\ sides\ is\ 15m.} \\ \\ \sf\pink{Difference\ of\ the\ parallel\ side\ is\ 16m.} \end{cases}

\text{\large\underline{\blue{Formula\ to\ be\ used:-}}}

 \sf\orange{(Area\ of\ trapezium\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}\ (Sum\ of\ parallel\ sides)\ \times\ h)}

\text{\Large\underline{\purple{Solution:-}}}

● Let the one parallel side be x.

● And the other parallel side be x - 16.

 \sf{\underline{\ddag\qquad According\ to\ the\ question \qquad\ddag}}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {300\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}\ \times\ (x\ +\ x\ -\ 16)\ \times\ 15}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {300\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}\ \times\ (2x\ -\ 16)\ \times\ 15}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {(300\ \times\ 2)\ =\ 30x\ -\ 240}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {600\ =\ 30x\ -\ 240}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {600\ +\ 240\ =\ 30x}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {840\ =\ 30x}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {\cancel \dfrac{840}{30}\ =\ x}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {28\ =\ x}

 \sf \: \: \: \: : \implies {\purple{\underline{\fbox{x\ =\ 28.}}}}\bigstar

The value of x is 28.

 \sf{\underline{\ddag\qquad Therefore \qquad\ddag}}

 \sf \Longrightarrow {One\ parallel\ side\ =\ x\ =\ 28m.}

 \sf \Longrightarrow {Other\ parallel\ side\ =\ x\ -\ 16\ =\ 28\ -\ 16\ =\ 12m.}

Hence:-

● The two parallel sides are 28m and 12m.
