Question
The area of a trapezium is 960 square metres and the
parallel sides are 60 m and 36 m. What is the perpendicular distance between these two sides?Solution
ATQ,
Area of trapezium = (1/2) X height X (sum of parallel sides)
So, 960 = (1/2) X height X (60 + 36)
Or, 960 = (1/2) X height X 96
Or, 96 X height = 1,920
So, height = 20 metres
