Answer:
A = 2240 m²
Explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated as
A = h (b₁ + b₂ )
where h is the perpendicular height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases
Here h = 32 , b₁ = 90 and b₂ = 50 , then
A = × 32 × (90 + 50) = 16 × 140 = 2240 m²
Given,
Parallel sides of the trapezium = 50m, 90m
Height of the trapezium = 32m
Therefore,
Area of the trapezium
= (50 + 90) m × 16m
= 140m × 16m
