Question

1. The diagonal of a quadrilateral is 30 cm and the
perpendiculars drawn to the diagonal from the
opposite vertices are of lengths 9.2 cm and 5.5 cm.
Find the area of the quadrilateral.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey

Given that :-

• Length if diagonal = 30 cm

• Length of perpendicular = 8 cm and 10 cm .

So ,

area of quadrilateral =

1 / 2 * length of diagonal ( sum of perpendiculars )

= 1 / 2 * 30 * ( 8 + 10 )

= 15 * 18

= 270 cm²
