Find the area of trapezium with parallel sides 5m and 2m and perpendicular distance between them is 4m.

Answer»

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common ration be x,

Then the two parallel sides are 3x, 2x

DISTANCE between them = 10 CM

AREA of trapezium = 325 cm²

Area of trapezium = 1/2 (p₁ + p₂) h

325 = 1/2 (3x + 2x) 10

⇒ 325 = 5x × 5

⇒ 325 = 25x

⇒ x = 325/25

Therefore, 3x = 3 × 13 = 39 and 2x = 2 × 13 = 26

Therefore, the length of parallel sides area are 26 cm and 39 cm.
