A trapezium plate having two parallel sides of length 17 cm and 11 cm, and distance between them is 8 cm. Silver plating is to be done on the plate at a rate of Rs. 2 per square cm. What will be the total cost of silver plating?1. Rs. 2242. Rs. 2543. Rs. 3364. Rs. 308

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Rs. 224

Given:

Parallel sides of a trapezium are of length 17 cm and 11 cm

Height of trapezium = 8 cm

Cost of silver plating is Rs 2 per cm2 

Formula used:

Area of trapezium = (1/2) × Sum of parallel sides × Height

Calculation:

Sum of parallel sides = 17 + 11 = 28

Area of trapezium = (1/2) × Sum of parallel sides × Height

⇒ Area of trapezium = (1/2) × 28 × 8

⇒ Area of trapezium is = 112 cm2

The total cost of silver plating = 2 × 112 = 224

 The total cost of silver plating a trapezium plate is Rs. 224
