Verified answer

Given :

• Area of trapezium = 850 sq.m
• Length of one of the parallel sides = 64 cm
• Perpendicular distance between the parallel sides = 17 cm

To Find :

• The length of the other parallel side

Solution :

Area of a trapezium is given by ,

Here ,

• a and b are length of parallel sides
• h is distance between the parallel sides

We have ,

• a = 64 cm
• A = 850 sq.m
• d = 17 cm

Substituting the values ;

Hence ,

• The length of the other parallel side is 36 cm

Given:-

Area of a trapezium =

One of the parallel sides is 64 cm

Solution:-

Area of trapezium=×sum of parallel side ×perpendicular

let the value of other parallel side be x cm.

Hence, the length of the parallel side is 36 cm.
