Answer:
The area one window is 15 [tex]ft^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Height of the trapezium = 5 feet
outside edge length = 1 foot
inside edge length = 5 feet
To Find:
The area of one window =?
Solution:
The area of the trapezium can be found using the formula
=>[tex]$\left(\frac{\text {outside edge length}+\text {inside edge length}}{2}\right) \times$height[/tex]
Substituting the values
=>[tex]$\left(\frac{1+5}{5}\right) \times$height[/tex]
=>[tex]\left(\frac{1+5}{2}\right)\times 5[/tex]
=>[tex]\left(\frac{6}{2}\right)\times 5[/tex]
=>[tex]\left(3)\times 5[/tex]
=> 15 [tex]ft^2[/tex]
