  1. [tex]area \: of \: trapizium = \frac{h(a + b)}{2} [/tex]

    [tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 215 \: {cm}^{2} = \frac{h(16 + 24) }{2} [/tex]

  2. Answer:

    10.75 cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Area of trapezium = 1/2 X (sum of parallel sides) X distance between it’s parallel sides

    215 = 1/2 X (24+16) X h

    215 = 1/2 X 40 X h

    215 = 20h

    215/20 = h

    h = 10.75 cm

    so the distance between it’s parallel sides = 10.75 cm
