  • A 60cm2
  • B 54cm2
  • C 27cm2
  • D 54\(\sqrt{2}\)cm2
  • E 27\(\sqrt{2}\)cm2
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Average of trapezium XYZW = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(a + b)h from rt < YDZ,

h = 6 sin 30o/sup]

area = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(10 + 8)3

= 6 x \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 3

\(\frac{1}{2}\)(18) x 3

= 27cm[sup]2
