The area of a trapezium is 34 cm² and the length of one of the parallel sides is 10 cm and its height is 4 cm. Find the length of the other parallel side.

Let the length of the other parallel side be b.
Length of one parallel side (a) = 10 am and height (h) = 4 cm
Area of trapezium = 1/2 (a+b)xh
⇒ 34=1/2(10+b)x4 ⇒ 34 = (10+b)x2
⇒ 34=20+2b ⇒ 34-20=2b
⇒ 14=2b ⇒ 7=b ⇒ b=7
Hence, the another required parallel side is 7 cm.
