the diagram below shows a trapezium. all the measurements are in centimetres. the area of the trapezium is 30 cm^2 l. Set up and
solve a quadratic equation to work out the value of x
1 answer:
Answer:
x²+x-30
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is
(x+3+x-1)/2 × x=30
x²+x-30 (it's the quadratic equation)
x²+6x-5x-30=0
x(x+6)-5(x+6)=0
(x+6)(x-5)=0
x=-6
x=5
It's impossible for Length to be negative
So x=5
