Answer:
2.3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\textsf{Area of a trapezium}=\dfrac{1}{2}(a+b)h \quad \textsf{(where a and b are the bases and h is the height)}[/tex]
Given:
- base a = 3.8 cm
- base b = 6.1 cm
- h = x cm
Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for x:
[tex]\implies \dfrac{1}{2}(3.8 + 6.1)x=11.385[/tex]
[tex]\implies \dfrac{1}{2}(9.9)x=11.385[/tex]
[tex]\implies 9.9x=22.77[/tex]
[tex]\implies x=2.3[/tex]
