Area_trapezium = ½ × sum_parallel_sides × height_between_them
→ height = 2 × area_trapezium ÷ sum_parallel_sides
→ height = 2 × 98 sq units ÷ (20 + 8) units
→ height = 196 ÷ 28 units = 7 units.

A quadrilateral that has exactly one pair of parallel sides?
Trapezoid. A rectangle, rhombus and square all have 2 pairs of parallel sides.
Types of quadrilaterals?
Parallelogram -- 2 pairs of parallel sides Trapezoid -- exactly 1 pair of parallel sides Rhombus -- 4 congruent sides Rectangle -- 4 angles congruent Square -- four angles and sides congruent
What is a shape that has 1 set of parallel sides 4 sides and 4 angles?
a trapezoid
What shape has one pair of parallel sides?
A trapezoid.
How does a trapezoid differ from other quadrangles?
A trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides while other quadrilaterals have two pairs of parallel sides. also the trapezoid doesn't have to have any sides that are equal in length.
How do you find the are of a trapezoid?
Area in square units = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
How many surfaces does a trapezoid have?
A trapezoid has one surface and its surface area in square units is 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
What is the area of this trapezoid 7 m 4 m?
Area of a trapezoid in square units = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
Why can a square never be a trapezoid?
Sure it can. A trapezoid has two parallel sides; a square has both pairs of side parallel. Therefore, all square are automatically trapezoids.
Which is the area of trapezoid EFGH?
Its area in square units = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
What is the formula for finding trapezoid?
The formula for finding the area of a trapezoid is (a + b) * h / 2, where a and b are the lengths of the parallel sides, and h is the height of the trapezoid.
What is theformula for are for trapezoid?
Do you mean the area of a trapezoid if so then the formula is:- Area measured in square units = 0.5*(sum of the parallel sides)*height
Why can't a square and a trapezoid be congruent?
Because a square has 2 pairs of parallel sides but a trapezoid only has 1 pair of parallel sides
Explain why a square can never be a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a four-sided figure with only one pair of parallel sides. A square will always have two pairs of parallel sides.
What is area of a trapezoid if the width is 7 feet and the length is 38 feet?
Area of the trapezoid in square feet = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
How do you find square feet of a trapezoid?
Find the total length of the parallel sides and divide the result by 2. Next, multiply that number by the height of the trapezoid.
How is a square and a trapezoid different?
A square has two pairs of equal parallel sides whereas a trapezoid only has one pair of parallel sides of different lengths.
