Find the area of the trapezium, whose parallel sides are 12 cm and 10 cm, and distance between the parallel sides is 14 cm?

Q: Find the area of the trapezium, whose parallel sides are 12 cm and 10 cm, and distance between the parallel sides is 14 cm?

We know that, Area of trapezium = 1/2 x (Sum of parallel sides) x (Distance between Parallel sides) = 1/2 x (12 + 10) x 14 = 22 x 14/2 = 22 x 7 = 154 sq. cm

121 sq.com
154 sq.com
186 sq.com
164 sq.com

Correct Answer: 154 sq.com

Explanation:

We know that,

Area of trapezium = 1/2 x (Sum of parallel sides) x (Distance between Parallel sides)

= 1/2 x (12 + 10) x 14

= 22 x 14/2

= 22 x 7

= 154 sq. cm
