Solution

Problem 2 :

Find the area of a trapezium whose parallel sides are 24 cm and 20 cm and the distance between them is 15 cm.

Solution

Problem 3 :

The area of a trapezium is 1586 sq. cm. The distance between its parallel sides is 26 cm. If one of the parallel sides is 84 cm then, find the other side.
