Answer
Given:
The lengths of the parallel sides of the trapezium are 12 cm and 10 cm.
The distance between the parallel sides is 10 cm.
As we know, the area of a trapezium = x (sum of parallel sides) x height
= x (12 + 10) x 10 cm2
= x 22 x 10 cm2
= x 220 cm2
= 110 cm2
Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
