Water is pouring into a cuboidal reservoir at the rate of 60 litres per minute. If the volume of reservoir is 108 m3, find the number of hours it will take to fill the reservoir.
Here, parallel sides are 25 cm and 15 cm.
Height (i.e. distance between the parallel sides) = 12 cm
∵ Area of a trapezium ABCD =
∴ Area of the trapezium ABCD =
Thus, the required area of the trapezium ABCD = 240 cm2
