In a trapezium, it was found that the sum of the squares of the diagonals is less than the sum of the squares

of the sides by 144 cm2

the parallel sides (in cm).

. If the shorter of the parallel sides is 9 cm long, then find the length of the longer of

the parallel sides (in cm).  P.s OA not known… @Going_High  @s.goel4991  @sagarcat
