Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFWe know that area of trapezium = 1/2 × height × (a + b)
Where, a = length of the side parallel to the base
b = base
⇒ 18 sq.cm = 1/2 × 3 × (a + 5)
⇒ 36 = 3a + 15
⇒ 21 = 3a
⇒ a = 21/3 = 7 cm
∴ Length of the side parallel to the base is 7 cmLast updated on Jun 11, 2025
