Question

$\frac{1}{2}$ {(sum of parallel sides) × h}. Area of which of these figures could be calculated using this formula?

• A. Area of rectangle
• B. Area of rhombus
• C. Area of square
• D. Area of trapezium

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C), (D)

The correct options are
A

Area of rectangle

B

Area of rhombus

C

Area of square

D

Area of trapezium

Area of trapezium = $\frac{1}{2}$ {(sum of parallel sides) × h}. However, rectangles, squares and rhombuses are trapeziums. Hence, the formula is applicable for all these.
