Find the height of a trapezium, the sum of the lengths of whose bases (parallel sides) is 60 cm and whose area is 600 cm2. |
Answer» Area of trapezium = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(sum of lengths of parallel sides) Length of bases of trapezium = 60 cm and 60 cm Area of trapezium = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(60 + 60) x altitude Length of altitude = \(\frac{2\times area}{120}\) = \(\frac{2\times 600}{120}\) = 10 Therefore length of altitude = 10 cm |
