what is the area of a trapezium whose parallel sides are 14cm and 7cm , and the distance between them is 6cm ?

Answer»

Answer :-

  • The area of trapezium is 63cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find :-

  • The area of trapezium

Solution:

Given that,

  • The PARALLEL sides of trapezium = 14cm and 7cm

  • The distance between two parallel sides = 6cm

We KNOW that,

  • 1/2 × ( a + b ) × h = Area of trapezium

Where,

  • a and b are the two parallel sides of trapezium
  • h is the distance between two parallel sides of the trapezium.

According the question,

⟶ 1/2 × ( a + b ) × h

⟶ 1/2 × ( 14 + 7 ) × 6

⟶ 1/2 × 21 × 6

⟶ 1 × 21 × 3

⟶ 21 × 3

⟶ 63

Hence, The area of trapezium is 63cm².
