Step-by-step explanation:
Area of trapezium = 1/2 × (a+b) × h
*a and b are the parallel lengths
Now we are going to find the distance, which is height (also known as 'h').
First, substitute the given values into the equation.
1080 = 1/2 × (55.6 + 34.4) × h
Move the 1/2 over to 1080 and divide.
1080 ÷ 1/2 = (55.6 + 34.4) × h
2160 = (55.6 + 34.4) × h
Add the numbers in the brackets.
2160 = 90 × h
Move 90 over to 2160 and divide.
2160 ÷ 90 = h
24 = h
