1)  

Area of a trapezium is 750 cm2. The parallel sides are 40 cm and 50 cm. Find the distance between the parallel sides.

Answer: 16.7 cm.


SOLUTION 1 :

Given,

Area of trapezium = 750 cm2

                             a = 40cm, b = 50cm.  h =

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

                          750 = 12 x h x (40 + 50)

                          750 =  1/ 2 x h x 9045

                          75045 = h    ( dividing by 45, on both the sides )

                           16.7 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 16.7 cm.

 



2)  

Area of a trapezium is 890 cm2. The parallel sides are 40 cm and 50 cm. Find the distance between the parallel sides.

Answer: 19.8 cm.


SOLUTION 1 :

Given,

Area of trapezium = 890 cm2

                             a = 40cm, b = 50cm.  h =

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

                          890 = 12 x h x (40 + 50)

                          890 =  1/ 2 x h x 9045

                          89045 = h    ( dividing by 45, on both the sides )

                           19.8 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 19.8 cm.

 



3)  

Area of a trapezium is 710 cm2. The parallel sides are 40 cm and 40 cm. Find the distance between the parallel sides.

Answer: 17.8 cm.

                             a = 40cm, b = 40cm.  h =

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

                          710 = 12 x h x (40 + 40)

                          710 =  1/ 2 x h x 8040

                          71040 = h    ( dividing by 40, on both the sides )

                           17.8 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 17.8 cm.

 



4)

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

                          850 = 12 x h x (50 + 50)

                          850 =  1/ 2 x h x 10050

                          85050 = h    ( dividing by 50, on both the sides )

                           17.0 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 17.0 cm.

 



5)  

Area of a trapezium is 840 cm2. The parallel sides are 40 cm and 50 cm. Find the distance between the parallel sides.

Answer: 18.7 cm.

                             a = 40cm, b = 50cm.  h =

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

                          840 = 12 x h x (40 + 50)

                          840 =  1/ 2 x h x 9045

                          84045 = h    ( dividing by 45, on both the sides )

                           18.7 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 18.7 cm.

 



6)  

Area of a trapezium is 910 cm2. The parallel sides are 40 cm and 60 cm. Find the distance between the parallel sides.

Answer: 18.2 cm.

                             a = 40cm, b = 60cm.  h =

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

                          910 = 12 x h x (40 + 60)

                          910 =  1/ 2 x h x 10050

                          91050 = h    ( dividing by 50, on both the sides )

                           18.2 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 18.2 cm.

 



7)  

Area of a trapezium is 950 cm2. The parallel sides are 40 cm and 40 cm. Find the distance between the parallel sides.

Answer: 23.8 cm.

                             a = 40cm, b = 40cm.  h =

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

                          950 = 12 x h x (40 + 40)

                          950 =  1/ 2 x h x 8040

                          95040 = h    ( dividing by 40, on both the sides )

                           23.8 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 23.8 cm.

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

                          790 = 12 x h x (30 + 40)

                          790 =  1/ 2 x h x 7035

                          79035 = h    ( dividing by 35, on both the sides )

                           22.6 = h 

Hence, the height of the trapezium is 22.6 cm.
