The square meters bermuda grass required is 230 m².
Step-by-step explanation:
The upper base of the trapezoidal lawn = 16 m
The lower base of the trapezoidal lawn = 30 m
The distance between the two parallel bases of the lawn = 10 m
We know the formula of a trapezium is given by,
Area = ½ × [sum of parallel sides] × h
Thus, substituting the given values in the formula, we get
The required square meters of the bermuda grass to be planted all over the trapezoidal lawn is,
= Area of trapezoidal lawn
= ½ × [16 + 30] × 10
= ½ × 46 × 10
= ½ × 460
= 230 m²
