Read each question carefully and show all your work. Use the formula for the area of a trapezium: A = 1/2 * (a + b) * h, where 'a' and 'b' are the lengths of the parallel sides and 'h' is the perpendicular height.
1. Which of the following is the correct formula for the area of a trapezium?
A = (a + b) * h
A = 1/2 * a * b * h
A = 1/2 * (a + b) * h
A = 2 * (a + b) * h
2. A trapezium has parallel sides of length 8 cm and 12 cm, and a height of 5 cm. What is its area?
60 cm²
50 cm²
100 cm²
25 cm²
3. The two parallel sides of a trapezium are often referred to as the .
4. The perpendicular distance between the parallel sides of a trapezium is called its .
5. Calculate the area of the trapezium shown below.
6. A field is in the shape of a trapezium. The lengths of its parallel sides are 45 meters and 65 meters, and the perpendicular distance between them is 30 meters. Find the area of the field.
7. All trapeziums have at least one pair of parallel sides.
