  1. ABCD is a trapezium in which AD || BC and AB = DC = 10 m. then the distance of AD from BC is :
    1. 10√2 m
    2. 4√2 m
    3. 5√2 m
    4. 6√2 m
Correct Option: C

According to question , we draw a figure of trapezium ABCD in which AD || BC and AB = DC = 10 m

AE ⊥ BC; DF ⊥ BC
∴ ∠DCB = 45°
In ∆ CDF,

sin 45° =
DF
DC

1
=
DF
210

⇒ DF =
10
= 5√2 metre.
