Answer:

Side_2 = 17\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Trapezoid

Area = 243cm^2

Height = 18cm

Side_1 = 10cm

Required

Determine the length of the second parallel side

The area of a trapezoid is:

Area = \frac{1}{2}(Side_1 + Side_2) * Height

Substitute values for Area, Height and Side1

243 = \frac{1}{2}(10 + Side_2) * 18

Multiply both sides by 2

2 * 243 = 2 * \frac{1}{2}(10 + Side_2) * 18

486 = (10 + Side_2) * 18

Divide both sides by 18

27 = 10 + Side_2

Side_2 = 27 - 10

Side_2 = 17\ cm

Hence;

<em>The length of the second parallel side is 17cm</em>
