Question
PQRS is a trapezium with PQ and RS parallel PQ = 6 cm, QR = 5 cm, RS = 3cm and PS = 4cm. The area of PQRS is
Solution
To find the area of a trapezium, we use the formula:
Area = 1/2 * (sum of parallel sides) * (distance between them)
In trapezium PQRS, PQ and RS are the parallel sides and PS is the distance between them.
Given, PQ = 6 cm, RS = 3 cm, and PS = 4 cm.
Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
Area = 1/2 * (6 cm + 3 cm) * 4 cm = 1/2 * 9 cm * 4 cm = 18 square cm
So, the area of the trapezium PQRS is 18 square cm.
