Question

Find the area of the figure below. 6 cm 5 om A. 54 cm B. 50cm C. 44 cm D. 420 cm 14 cm

Answer 1

$\text{Area of Trapezium = }\frac{1}{2}(a+b)h$

Where a=6, b = 14 and h = 5

$\text{Area}=\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(6+14)(5)=\frac{1}{2}\times20\times5=10\times5=50cm^2$

So, the answer is option B
