Answer:

  30 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a trapezium with area 756 m², height 28 m, and one base of length 24 m, you want to know the length of the other base.

Area formula

The formula for the area of a trapezium is ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

Application

Using the given values, we have ...

  756 = 1/2(24 +b2)(28)

  54 = 24 +b2 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 14

  30 = b2 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 24

The measure of the other parallel side is 30 m.
