In geometry, a trapezoid (/ ˈ t r æ p ə z ɔɪ d /) in North American English, or trapezium (/ t r ə ˈ p iː z i ə m /) in British English, [1] [2] is a quadrilateral that has at least one pair of parallel sides. [3] The parallel sides are called the bases of the trapezoid.
What is the formular to find the perimeter of a trapezium —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.170.37.10 03:31, 11 January 2010 (UTC) What information do you know? Often you know at least two of the four side lengths, and you can usually find the others by using the Pythagorean theorem .
If the area of the Square is 434 units. The area of the circle is 433.7. The ostracon depicting this diagram was found near the Step Pyramid of Saqqara. A curve is divided into five sections and the height of the curve is given in cubits, palms, and digits in each of the sections. [3] [4] At some point, lengths were standardized by cubit rods ...
Shoelace scheme for determining the area of a polygon with point coordinates (,),..., (,). The shoelace formula, also known as Gauss's area formula and the surveyor's formula, [1] is a mathematical algorithm to determine the area of a simple polygon whose vertices are described by their Cartesian coordinates in the plane. [2]
The area of an isosceles (or any) trapezoid is equal to the average of the lengths of the base and top (the parallel sides) times the height. In the adjacent diagram, if we write AD = a , and BC = b , and the height h is the length of a line segment between AD and BC that is perpendicular to them, then the area K is
The following is a list of centroids of various two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects. The centroid of an object in -dimensional space is the intersection of all hyperplanes that divide into two parts of equal moment about the hyperplane.
For example, the perimeter of a rectangle of width 0.001 and length 1000 is slightly above 2000, while the perimeter of a rectangle of width 0.5 and length 2 is 5. Both areas are equal to 1. Proclus (5th century) reported that Greek peasants "fairly" parted fields relying on their perimeters. [ 2 ]
Trapezium, plural trapezia, may refer to: Trapezium, in British and other forms of English, a trapezoid, a quadrilateral that has exactly one pair of parallel sides; Trapezium, in North American English, an irregular quadrilateral with no sides parallel; Trapezium (bone), a bone in the hand; Trapezium Cluster, a group of stars in the Orion Nebula
