Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's solve this step by step.
We need to calculate the total area of the trapezium and the parallelogram shown in the image.
1. Area of the Trapezium
The formula for the area of a trapezium is:
Where:
- (top base),
- (bottom base),
- (height).
Substitute the values:
2. Area of the Parallelogram
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is:
Where:
- Base = ,
- Height = .
Substitute the values:
3. Total Area
Now, add the areas of the trapezium and parallelogram:
Final Answer
The total area of the trapezium and the parallelogram is:
