Trapezoid Perimeter Calculator
How to use this Trapezoid Perimeter Calculator 🤔
- Enter ✎ value for length of base 1 (b1).
- Enter ✎ value for length of base 2 (b2).
- Enter ✎ value for length of first non-parallel side (a).
- Enter ✎ value for length of second non-parallel side (c).
- As soon as you enter the required input value(s), the Trapezoid Perimeter is calculated immediately, and displaed in the output section (present under input section).
Calculation
Once you enter the input values in the calculator, the output parameters are calculated.
Examples
The following examples cover how to calcualte the Perimeter when length of base 1, length of base 2, length of first non-parallel side, and length of second non-parallel side are given.
1. What is the Perimeter of Trapezoid whose length of base 1 is 10 units, length of base 2 is 20 units, length of first non-parallel side is 12 units, and length of second non-parallel side is 14 units?
Answer
Given:
- length of base 1, b1 = 10 units
- length of base 2, b2 = 20 units
- length of first non-parallel side, a = 12 units
- length of second non-parallel side, c = 14 units
The formula to find the Perimeter of a Trapezoid is:
P = \( a + b1 + c + b2 \)
Substitute given values in the above formula.
P = \(12+10+14+20\)
P = 56 units
∴ Perimeter, P = 56 units
2. What is the Perimeter of Trapezoid whose length of base 1 is 1 units, length of base 2 is 3 units, length of first non-parallel side is 0.5 units, and length of second non-parallel side is 0.6 units?
Answer
Given:
- length of base 1, b1 = 1 units
- length of base 2, b2 = 3 units
- length of first non-parallel side, a = 0.5 units
- length of second non-parallel side, c = 0.6 units
The formula to find the Perimeter of a Trapezoid is:
P = \( a + b1 + c + b2 \)
Substitute given values in the above formula.
P = \(0.5+1+0.6+3\)
P = 5.1 units
∴ Perimeter, P = 5.1 units
