6 cm
8 cm​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diagonal =32cm , Base=8cm , side=6cm

⇒Area of square

=

2

1

×(d)

2

=

1

×(32)

2

=512cm

2

⇒Area of shaded portion I= Area of shaded portion II

⇒

2

512

=256cm

2

∴ Area of paper required =256 cm

⇒For triangle III region

⇒S=

2

6+6+8

=10cm

⇒A=

s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)

⇒Area =

10(10−6)(10−6)(10−8)

=

10×4×4×2

cm
