Which of the following is the correct formula to calculate area of a trapezium?
Let's call the parallel sides A and B, and the distance between them as H. The area of the trapezium, or K, is (A+B)H/2. K = (A+B)H/2
How is the formula of a trapezoid related to the formula of a parallelogram?
Suppose you have a trapezium whose parallel sides (bases) are of lengths A and B units, and where the height is h units If you flip a trapezium over and append it to the original along one of the bases you will have a parallelogram whose base is A+B units in length and whose height is h units. So 2*Area of trapezium = Area of parallelogram = (A + B)*h
What are the characteristics of a trapezium?
has two parallel sideshas four straight linesThe area of the trapezium is given by the following formula where a and b are the lengths of the parallel sides and h is the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides.
How is the formula for the area of a trapezoid related to a parallelogram?
Suppose you have a trapezium whose parallel sides (bases) are of lengths A and B units, and where the height is h units If you flip a trapezium over and append it to the original along one of the bases you will have a parallelogram whose base is A+B units in length and whose height is h units. So 2*Area of trapezium = Area of parallelogram = (A + B)*h
What are the properties of height and trapezium?
The area of a trapezium is found because: 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height = area
