Study the adjoining picture and answer the following questions:

The area of Trapezum DGCE is.

100 m^2

260 m^2

70 m^2

130 m^2

✅ Correct Option: 3

Trapezium DGCE has parallel sides DG = 5 m and EC = 15 m, with the perpendicular distance (height) between them being 7 m.

Area $= \frac{1}{2} \times (\text{sum of parallel sides}) \times \text{height}$

$= \frac{1}{2} \times (5 + 15) \times 7 = \frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 7 = 70$ m squared.
