Question

ABCD is a parallelogram in which BP-1 DA and CQ 1 AB.
If AB = 20 cm, CQ = 15 cm and BP = 25 cm, find out AD.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given: Here in the question it is given

(1) ABCD is a parallelogram,

(2) and

(3) , AB = 16 cm

(4) AE = 8cm

(5) CF = 10cm

To Find : AD =?

Calculation: We know that formula for calculating the

Therefore,

Area of paralleogram ABCD = DC × AE (Taking base as DC and Height as AE )

Area of paralleogram ABCD = AB × AE (AB = DC as opposite side of the parallelogram are equal)

Therefore,

Area of paralleogram ABCD = 16 × 8 ……(1)

Taking the base of Parallelogram ABCD as AD we get

Area of paralleogram ABCD = AD × CF (taking base as AD and height as CF)

Area of paralleogram ABCD = AD × 10 ……(2)

Since equation 1 and 2 both represent the Area of the same Parallelogram ABCD , both should be equal.

Hence fro equation (1) and (2),

This means that,

Hence we get the result as
