First we will split trapezium on two geometric figure.

One is rectangle and the second is right triangle.

When we subtract 11-4=7cm  we get one cathetus of the right triangle a=7cm also we know hypotenuse which is c=16cm.

We will use Pythagorean theorem to find the second cathetus b

b=√16∧2-7∧2= √256-49= √207 ≈ 14.39cm =DC =>

AC =√(DC)∧2+(AD)∧2= √14.39∧2+11∧2= √207+121= √328= 18.1cm

AC=18.1cm

Good luck!!!




The length of AC to one decimal place in the trapezium is 18.1 cm

Using Pythagoras theorem, we can find the length AC

Pythagoras theorem

c² = a² + b²

Therefore, draw a line from the point B to the line AD and call it line BX.

BX ║ CD

Therefore,

16² - 7² = BX²

256  - 49 = BX²

BX² = 207

BX = √207

BX = 14.3874945699

BX = 14.4 cm

Therefore,

11² + 14.4² = AC²

121 + 207.36 = AC²

AC = √328.36

AC = 18.120706388

AC = 18.1 cm
