उत्तर

The given figure is a trapezium because 2 opposite sides are parallel.

length of the pool = 40m

height of the trapezium = 10m

Area of cross section = Area of trapezium

= `(1)/(2) xx ("sum of parallel sides") xx "height"`

= `(1)/(2) xx (2 + 3) xx 10`

= 25m2

Volume of the pool = Area of cross section x length

= 25 x 40

= 1000m3

∴ The volume of the pool is 1000m3
