Hence, ils Volumm is 12cma of a trapezium is 384 cm. Its parallel side

1.	Hence, ils Volumm is 12cma of a trapezium is 384 cm. Its parallel sides are in the ratio 3 : 5 and tn them is 12 cm. Find the length of each parallel side.
Answer» Given > height of trapezium = 12cmLet the common multiple be x ; thenthe sides will bea = 3xb = 5x Area of trapezium = (1/2)×(sum of parallel sides)×h384 = (1/2)×(3x+5x)×128x = 64x = 8 The length of the smaller side= 3x= 3×8= 24 cm

Hence, ils Volumm is 12cma of a trapezium is 384 cm. Its parallel sides are in the ratio 3 : 5 and tn them is 12 cm. Find the length of each parallel side.

Answer»

Given > height of trapezium = 12cmLet the common multiple be x ; thenthe sides will bea = 3xb = 5x

Area of trapezium = (1/2)×(sum of parallel sides)×h384 = (1/2)×(3x+5x)×128x = 64x = 8

The length of the smaller side= 3x= 3×8= 24 cm
