Find the altitude of a trapezium if the length of its two bases are 14 cm and 18 cm respectively. The area of the trapezium is 48 cm²?

Answer: 3 cm
Explanation

Area = 1/2 × (sum of bases) × altitude

48 = 1/2 × (14 + 18) × altitude

48 = 1/2 × 32 × altitude

48 = 16 × altitude

Altitude = 48/16 = 3 cm.
