Question

a diagonal of a quardrilateral is 30 cm in length and the length of perpendicular to it from the opposite vertices are 68cm and 96 cm . find the area of quardrilateral

Answer 1

Hi there !

Here's your answer


$area \: of \: a \: general \: quadrilateral \\ = \frac{1}{2} d(h1 \: + h2)$
where d is a diagonal and h1 and he are heights

therefore,

we have

$\frac{1}{2} \times 30(68 + 96)$

$\frac{1}{2} \times 30 \times 164$
2460 cm²
