Answer 3:
Given:Lengths of the parallel sides are 16 dm and 22 dm.And, height between the parallel sides is 12 dm.Area of trapezium = 12×(Sum of the parallel sides)×(Height)=12×(16+22)×(12)=228 dm2=228×dm×dm=228×110m×110m=2.28 m2
Question 4:
Find the height of a trapezium, the sum of the lengths of whose bases (parallel sides) is 60 cm and whose area is 600 cm2.
Answer 4:
Given: Sum of the parallel sides of a trapezium = 60 cm Area of the trapezium = 600 cm2Area of trapezium=12×(Sum of the parallel sides)×(Height)On putting the values:600=12×60×(Height)600 = 30×(Height)Height = 60030 = 20 cm
Question 5:
Find the altitude of a trapezium whose area is 65 cm2 and whose bases are 13 cm and 26 cm.
Answer 5:
Given:Area of the trapezium=65 cm2 The lengths of the opposite parallel sides are 13 cm and 26 cm.Area of trapezium=12×(Sum of parallel bases)×(Altitude)On putting the values: 65=12×(13+26)×(Altitude)65×2=39×AltitudeAltitude=13039=103 cm
Question 6:
Find the sum of the lengths of the bases of a trapezium whose area is 4.2 m2 and whose height is 280 cm.
Answer 6:
Given:Area of the trapezium = 4.2 m2Height = 280 cm = 280100m = 2.8 mArea of trapezium =12×(Sum of the parallel bases)×(Height)4.2 = 12×(Sum of the parallel bases)×2.84.2×2=(Sum of the parallel bases)×2.8Sum of the parallel bases=8.42.8=3 m
Question 7:
Find the area of a trapezium whose parallel sides of lengths 10 cm and 15 cm are at a distance of 6 cm from each other. Calculate this area as
(i) the sum of the areas of two triangles and one rectangle.

Answer 7:
Given:Length of the parallel sides of a trapezium are 10 cm and 15 cm. The distance between them is 6 cm.Let us extend the smaller side and then draw perpendiculars from the ends of both sides.
(i)Area of trapezium ABCD =(Area of rectangle EFCD)+(Area of triangle AED+Area of triangle BFC)=(10×6)+[(12×AE×ED)+(12×BF×FC)]=60+[(12×AE×6)+(12×BF×6)]=60+[3AE+3 BF]=60+3×(AE+BF)Here, AE+EF+FB = 15cmAnd EF = 10 cm∴
