    The area of a trapezium whose parallel sides are 9 cm & 16 cm and the distance between these sides is 8 cm, is

    A) \[~60\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\]                              

    B)        \[~72\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\]                  

    C)        \[56\,c{{m}^{2}}\]                              

    D)         \[100c{{m}^{2}}\]                 

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    We have, parallel sides of a trapezium as 9 cm and 16 cm and height of trapezium is 8 cm. \[\therefore \]Area of trapezium \[=\frac{1}{2}[sum\,of\,parallel\,sides\times height]\] \[=\frac{1}{2}[9+16]\times 8=10\,c{{m}^{2}},\]
