{\orange{\underbrace{\overbrace{\bf{ Solution :}}}}}\\

the distance between PARALLEL sides of TRAPEZIUM are HEIGHT of trapezium.

Let, the height be x

area of trapezium = {476cm}^{2}

1/2 × height × sum of parllel SIDE = {476cm}^{2}

1/2 × x × 10CM + 46cm = {476cm}^{2}

1/2 × x × 56cm = {476cm}^{2}

1/2 × 56cmx = {476cm}^{2}

28cmx = {476cm}^{2}

x = \frac{{476cm}^{2}}{ 28cm}

x = \frac{{\cancel{476cm}}^{2}}{ \cancel{28cm}}

x = 17cm

height of trapezium is 17cm. it means that distance between parallel side is 17cm
