The area of a trapezium is found because: 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height = area
Chat with our AI personalities
Let the two parallel sides be a and b, and the distance between them, the height of the trapezium, be h. Then: area of trapezium = 1/2 (a+b) h That is half the sum of the two parallel sides times the height of the trapezium.
Parallel (at least one pair)
1.in a trapezium, only one pair of opposite sides are parallel. 2.in a trapezium, only one pair consecutive angels are supplementary.
te formulae is a half[a plus b]height
It has two right angles. It has a pai of parallel sides.
