1)  

A garden is in the form of a trapezium. The parallel sides are 40m and 30m. The perpendicular distance between the parallel side is 20m. Find the area of the garden.

Answer: 700 m2


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

a = 40m  b = 30m,    h = 20m.

Area of the garden    =  Area of the trapezium

    Area of the trapezium =

Area of the trapezium = 12 h( a+b )

                                   = 12 x 20 (40 + 30)

                                   = 1/ 2 x 20 x 70 35

                                   =  20 x 35
