Question

Can someone plz help me with this one problem plz!!!

Answer 1

25 square inches

Explanation:

Given,

Parallel sides of the trapezium = 3in, 7in

Height of the trapezium = 5in

Therefore,

Area of the trapezium

`= (1)/(2) * sum \: of \: parallel \: sides * height`

`= (1)/(2) * (7 + 3)in * 5in`

`= (1)/(2) * 10in * 5in`

= 5in × 5in

`= {25in}^(2)`

Hence,

Area if the trapezium is 25 square inches (Ans)
