Answer 1

a parallelogram has one diagonal of 42 m long and the perpendicular distance of this diagonal from either of the outlying vertices is 10 m as shown in the figure . Find the area of the field

Answer 2

Answer:

420m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Here ABCD is a parallelogram has one of its diagonal AC = 42 m.

BE,DF are perpendicular distance from diagonal to the outlying vertices.

BE = DF = 10

Area of parallelogram ABCD = Area of a AABC + Area of a AACD.

= (1/2) x AC X BE + (1/2) x AC X DF m2

= (1/2) x AC [ BE + DF] m2

= (1 / 2) x 42 x [10 + 10] m2

= 420 m2
