Question : Find the area of the trapezium whose parallel sides measure 14 cm, and 18 cm and the distance between parallel sides is 15 cm.
Option 1: 310 cm2
Option 2: 300 cm2
Option 3: 220 cm2
Option 4: 240 cm2
Correct Answer: 240 cm 2
Solution :
The area of a trapezium = $\frac{1}{2}$ × (sum of lengths of parallel sides) × (distance between parallel sides)
Substituting the given values into the formula,
$\therefore$ Area = $\frac{1}{2}$ × (14 + 18) × 15 = 240 cm
