For a trapezoid:
the area equals the product of half the sum of the two bases' length and the normal height between them

so that, we can write:
$105= \frac{5+9}{2}*h\\~\\h=15~~cm$

Hence the parallel sides are 15 cm apart.

I hope that helps!

Which line segments are equal? How do you know?

Olenka [21]

Answer:

MQ and QP are equal, MO and OP are equal, x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

QO is a perpendicular bisector of MP meaning that Triangle MQP must be isosceles (if at least two of the following, angle bisector, median, or an altitude, coincide in a triangle, that triangle must be isosceles). In this case an altitude and median coincide in triangle MQP. This means that MQ=QP as the triangle is isosceles. And also MO=OP because QO is a median. Now solving for x, 11=4x+3, 8=4x, x=2. Hope this helps!
