1)  

 In an isosceles trapezium






Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :

Ans = non parallel sides are equal

 

In an isosceles trapezium, non-parallel sides are equal.



2)  

 The height of a trapezium whose sum of parallel sides is 10 cm and the area 170 cm2 is 






Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Given,

Area = 170 cm2    a + b = 10

Area of trapezium = 12 h (a+b)

                             = 12 x h x 10 = 170 cm2

                170 cm2 = 1 / 2 x h x 10 5

                          h  = 1705 = 34 cm.

The height of trapezium = 34 cm.                         



3)  

 The area of trapezium is ______ sq.units.

(A)  h(a+b)  (B) 12 h(a+b)   (C)  h(a+b)   (D)   12 h(a-b)






Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Ans = B

Area of trapezium = 12 h(a+b) sq.units.



4)  

 The sum of parallel sides of a trapezium is 24cm and height is 25cm. Then its area is...






Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Given,

a + b  = 24 cm,   h = 25 cm.

Area of trapezium = 12 h(a+b)

                             = 1/2 25 x 24 12

                             =  25 x 12

Area of trapezium    = 300 cm2



5)  

 In an isosceles trapezium






Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Ans = non parallel sides are equal

 

In an isosceles trapezium, non-parallel sides are equal.



6)  

 The height of a trapezium whose sum of parallel sides is 40 cm and the area 140 cm2 is 






Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :

Given,

Area = 140 cm2    a + b = 40

Area of trapezium = 12 h (a+b)

                             = 12 x h x 40 = 140 cm2

                140 cm2 = 1 / 2 x h x 40 20

                          h  = 14020 = 7 cm.

The height of trapezium = 7 cm.                         



7)  

 The area of trapezium is ______ sq.units.

(A)  h(a+b)  (B) 12 h(a+b)   (C)  h(a+b)   (D)   12 h(a-b)






Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :

Ans = B

Area of trapezium = 12 h(a+b) sq.units.



8)  

 The sum of parallel sides of a trapezium is 24cm and height is 20cm. Then its area is...






Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Given,

a + b  = 24 cm,   h = 20 cm.

Area of trapezium = 12 h(a+b)

                             = 1/2 20 x 24 12

                             =  20 x 12

Area of trapezium    = 240 cm2



9)  

 In an isosceles trapezium






Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :

Ans = non parallel sides are equal

 

In an isosceles trapezium, non-parallel sides are equal.



10)  

 The height of a trapezium whose sum of parallel sides is 20 cm and the area 120 cm2 is 






Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :

Given,

Area = 120 cm2    a + b = 20

Area of trapezium = 12 h (a+b)

                             = 12 x h x 20 = 120 cm2

                120 cm2 = 1 / 2 x h x 20 10

                          h  = 12010 = 12 cm.

The height of trapezium = 12 cm.
