Find the area of the following figures

Height of trapezium = 14-8


= 6 cm


Area of trapezium is given as, A = 1/2 × (a + b)h,


As shown below:



Where, a is the shorter side.


B is the longer side.


H is the distance between the two sides.


Area of trapezium


= 60 cm2


Area of square = 8 × 8
