A resident welfare society has developed a land having parallelogram shape of side 12 cm each
and pair of opposite sides is parallel. They divided the land into five parts by joining the mid-
points of consecutive sides of given quadrilateral. Here, one part quadrilateral and another four
parts are triangles. In one middle part, they developed gardening and in rest of the part, they
developed classical musical centres. (i) Name the quadrilateral formed in middle.
(ii) What conclusion you will draw through this activity?
Answers
Answer:
parallelogram:
The opposite sides equal, parallel
SR and P Q are equal and parallel
Ina triangle the line Joining 2 mid
points is parallel and half of the 3rd Side.
Given : A quadrilateral is formed joining mid point of a parallelogram
To Find : the quadrilateral formed in middle.
Solution:
ABCD is a a parallelogram
AB = CD and AB || CD
BC = AD and BC || AD
line joining the mid-point of two sides of a triangle is equal to half the length of the third side and parallel to third side
Hence two sides are Parallel to one Diagonal and half of diagonal
PQ = RS = AC/2 & PQ || RS
And Similarly other two sides are Parallel to another Diagonal and half of that diagonal
QR = PS = BD/2 and QR || PS
Hence we get two pair of opposite side parallel and Equal
Hence a parallelogram
quadrilateral formed in middle is a parallelogram
Quadrilateral obtained by joining mid point of a parallelogram is always a parallelogram
