Find the sum of the lengths of the bases of a trapezium whose area is 4.2 m2 and whose height is 280 cm.

Answer»

Area of trapezium = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(sum of lengths of parallel sides) x altitude

Area of trapezium = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(sum of sides) x altitude

Sum of parallel sides = \(\frac{2\times area}{2.8}\) = \(\frac{2\times 4.2}{2.8}\) = 3

Therefore sum of length of parallel sides = 3 m
