Solution

The area of a trapezoid is calculated by the formula:

Area = 1/2 * (base1 + base2) * height

Given that the area is 1575 sq cm, we can set up the equation to solve for the height (h).

However, without knowing the lengths of the bases of the trapezoid, we cannot definitively say which of the provided equations is correct.

If we knew the sum of the bases, we could divide the area by that sum, then multiply by 2 to find the height.

For example, if the sum of the bases was 90 cm, the equation would be 90h = 1575.

Without additional information, we cannot accurately answer this question.
