If the area of a trapezium with parallel sides of length 30 cm and 23 cm respectively is 265 sq cm, what is its height?

Given:


Area of trapezium = 265 sq cm.


Length of one parallel side = 30 cm


Length of the other parallel side = 23 cm


Sum of parallel side = (30 + 23) = 53 cm


Height =


⇒ Height = 10 cm
