Answer:
25 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Parallel sides of the trapezium = 3in, 7in
Height of the trapezium = 5in
Therefore,
Area of the trapezium
[tex] = \frac{1}{2} \times sum \: of \: parallel \: sides \times height[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{1}{2} \times (7 + 3)in \times 5in[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{1}{2} \times 10in \times 5in[/tex]
= 5in × 5in
[tex] = {25in}^{2} [/tex]
Hence,
Area if the trapezium is 25 square inches (Ans)
