How do you find the area of a trapezium?

All of them.

You haven't put any workings with any of these.
可你每道题都没写计算过程啊
No, cos these ones don't need workings.
因为这些题不需要写过程
OK, so these are all Pythagoras ones, are they?
好吧，这些用勾股定理就能解决对吧
It's important for me that the students come in and they enjoy maths.
让学生喜欢数学对我来说很重要
That's a really big thing.
这很重要
If they enjoy maths, then they're much more likely to want to do it.
