Read each question carefully and calculate the area of the trapeziums. Show all your work.

1. Find the area of a trapezium with parallel sides of length 10 cm and 15 cm, and a height of 8 cm.

2. If the area of a trapezium is 72 cm², one parallel side is 12 cm, and the height is 9 cm, the length of the other parallel side is cm.

3. Which of the following is the correct formula for the area of a trapezium, where 'a' and 'b' are the lengths of the parallel sides and 'h' is the height?

Area = (a + b) × h

Area = ½ × (a + b) × h

Area = a × b × h

Area = ½ × a × b × h

4. A trapezoidal garden has parallel sides measuring 18 meters and 24 meters. The perpendicular distance between these sides is 10 meters. What is the area of the garden?
