The height of a trapezium is 68 cm, and the sum of its parallel sides is 75 cm. If the area of the trapezium is $$\frac{6}{17}$$, times of the area of a square, then the length of the diagonal of the square is: (in cm) (Take ,$$\sqrt{2} = 1.4 1$$)
The height of a trapezium is 68 cm, and the sum of its parallel sides is 75 cm.
Area of a trapezium = $$\frac{1}{2}\times sum\ of\ its\ parallel\ sides\ \times height\ $$
=Â $$\frac{1}{2}\times75\ \times68\ $$
= $$75\ \times34\ $$If the area of the trapezium is $$\frac{6}{17}$$, times of the area of a square.
area of the trapezium = $$\frac{6}{17}$$ of the area of a square
$$2550=\frac{6}{17}\times(length\ of\ side\ of\ square)^2$$$$425 = \frac{1}{17}\times(length\ of\ side\ of\ square)^2$$
$$(length\ of\ side\ of\ square)^2 =Â 7225$$
$$(length\ of\ side\ of\ square)^2 = 85^2$$
length of side of square = 85 cm
Length of the diagonal of the square =Â $$\sqrt{2}\times(length\ of\ side\ of\ square)$$
=Â $$1.41\times85$$
=Â 119.85 cm
