Question

A quadrilateral has two parallel sides 250m 290m and the perpendiular distance between two parallel lines is 210m what is the area of the quadrilateral region?express its area in hector?

Answer 1

Parallel sides = 250m and 290m
Distance between them = 210m
Area of quadrilateral= half × (sum of parallel sides)×distance between them
=half×(250+290)×210
=530×105
=55,650sq. meter
Converting into hectares=
=1 square meter=0.0001 hectare
=55,650 square meter= 5.565
