Answer 1

Answer:

c = 11.3 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated as

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ h (a + b)

where h is the perpendicular height and a, b the parallel bases

Here A = 416.955, h = 20.9, a = 28.6 and b = c, thus

$\frac{1}{2}$ × 20.9 × (28.6 + c) = 416.955, that is

10.45(28.6 + c) = 416.955 ( divide both sides by 10.45 )

28.6 + c = 39.9 ( subtract 28.6 from both sides )

c = 11.3 yards
