Correct Answer: 550 m 2


Solution : Given: The length of two parallel sides of a trapezium is 25 metres and 30 metres and its height is 20 metres.
The area of the trapezium
= $\frac{1}{2}$ × The sum of parallel sides × Height
= $\frac{1}{2}\times (25+30) \times 20$
= $\frac{1}{2}\times 55 \times 20$
= $550$ m 2
Hence, the correct answer is 550 m 2 .
