The area of a trapezium is `1586\ c m^2` and the distance between the parallel sides is 26 cm. If one of the parallel sides is 38cm, find the other.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

let one of the unknown parallel side` =xcm`
area of trapezium`=1/2xx`(add of bases)`xxheight`
according to question
`1586cm^2=1/2xx(38+x)xx26`
`x=84cm`
so unknown side `=84cm`
