Answer 2

Given:

• Height of trapezium = 8cm
• Parallel sides = 14.5 and 19.5 cm

$~$

To Find:

• Area of trapezium

$~$

Solution:

• Area of trapezium = 1/2 (Sum of parallel sides) × H

$~$

Substituting values in the formula:

$\longrightarrow \sf \dfrac{1}{2} × (14.5 + 19.5) × 8$

$\longrightarrow \sf \dfrac{1}{2} \times 34 × 8$

$\longrightarrow \sf \dfrac{1}{2} × 272$

$\longrightarrow \sf 136 cm$

$~$

Hence,

• Area of trapezium is 136cm
