C. 1363. The parallel sides of a right-angled trapezium are \(\displaystyle 405\) and \(\displaystyle 80\) units long. The length of the right-angled leg is \(\displaystyle 65 \big(\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}\,\big)\) units. The trapezium is sliced into eight trapezoids, all similar to one another, with cuts parallel to the bases. What is the height of the largest slice?
