Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 12 cm Given: ABCD is a trapezium, AB ∥ DC M is mid-point of AD N is mid-point of BC CD = 19 cm MN = 15.5 cm Formula Used: MN = 1/2 × (AB + CD) In a trapezium AB ∥ DC And M and N are mid-points of AD and BC respectively. Calculation: MN = 1/2 × (AB + CD) ⇒ 15.5 = 1/2 × (AB + 19) ⇒ 31 = AB + 19 ⇒ AB = 31 – 19 ⇒ AB = 12 cm ∴ The length of AB is 12 cm. |
