The height or the distance between the two parallel sides of the given trapezium is 20 cm.

A trapezium or trapezoid is a two-dimensional geometric shape that has 4 sides, with one pair of parallel sides.

The parallel sides of a trapezium are called bases while the distance between them is the altitude or height.

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is given by

A = (a + b)/2 x h

where a and b are the parallel bases and h is the height.

Using this formula, the height or the distance between the two parallel sides can be computed.

A = (a + b)/2 x h

120 cm^2 = (5 cm + 7 cm) / 2 x h

120 = (12 / 2) x h

120 = 6h

h = 120 / 6

h = 20 cm
