Answer:
Area of a Parallelogram Base x Height
Area of a Rectangle Length x Width
Area of a Square Side x Side
Area of a Rhombus (1/2) x Diagonal 1 x Diagonal 2
Area of a Kite 1/2 x Diagonal 1 x Diagonal 2
Area of a general Quadrilateral =1/2×diagonal×(Sum of the height of two triangles)
If the bisectors of angles of a quadrilateral enclose a rectangle, then show that it is a parallelogram.
L, M, N, K are mid-points of sides BC, CD, DA and AB respectively of square ABCD, prove that DL, DK, BM and BN enclose a rhombus.
PQRS is a parallelogram. PS is produced to meet M so that SM = SR and MR is produced to meet PQ produced at N. Prove that QN= QR.
ABCD is a trapezium in which AB is parallel to CD. If ∟A = 36° and ∟B = 81°, then find ∟C and ∟D.
Quadrilaterals :-
A Quadrilateral is a 2d figure made of of line segments. A figure having 4 sides is said to be a Quadrilateral.
Properties of any quadrilateral :-
- The angles of the quadrilateral add up to 360°
- The sum of the exterior angles is 360°.
- In a regular Quadrilateral, the exterior angles are of measures 90° each.
Parallelogram :-
A parallelogram is a special type of Quadrilateral in which :-
- The opposite sides are equal and parallel.
- Opposite angles are equal.
- Adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180°).
- Diagonals bisect each other (divide the diagonal into 2 equal parts).
Area :-
- The area of the parallelogram = base × height
Perimeter :-
- The perimeter of a parallelogram = 2(base + height)
Rhombus :-
A rhombus is also a parallelogram, as it shows the same properties as that of a parallelogram.
- The opposite sides are equal and parallel (as all sides of the rhombus are equal).
- Opposite angles are equal.
- Adjacent angles are supplementary.
- Diagonals bisect each other at 90°.
Area :-
- The area of a rhombus = ½ × Diagonal 1 × Diagonal 2
Perimeter :-
- The perimeter of the parallelogram = 4 × side (side + side + side + side)
Rectangle :-
A rectangle also comes under the parallelogram category.
- Opposite sides are equal and parallel.
- Opposite angles are equal (all the angles of the rectangle are equal).
- Diagonals bisect each other at 90° and are equal.
Area :-
- The area of a rectangle = length × breadth
Perimeter :-
- The perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + breadth)
Square :-
The square is too categorised under the parallelogram.
- All sides of a square are equal and parallel (opposite sides are equal).
- All angles are equal.
- Diagonals bisect each other and are equal.
Area :-
- The area of a square = side × side => (side)²
If the diagonal of the square is given and the area is to be found :-
Perimeter :-
- The perimeter of a square = 4 × side (side + side + side + side)
Kite :-
A kite under certain conditions can be a parallelogram
- Adjacent sides are equal..
- Diagonals intersect at 90°.
- One pair of opposite angles are equal. (the angles where the unequal sides meet).
A kite is said to be a parallelogram, when it is in the form of a rhombus or a square as these 2 shapes satisfy the properties of the kite as well as that of the parallelogram's.
Area :-
- The area of the kite = ½ × Diagonal 1 × Diagonal 2
Perimeter :-
- Perimeter of the kite = 2(side1 + side2)
Trapezium :-
A trapezium has the following properties :-
- Angles add up to 360°.
- It has one pair of parallel sides and one pair of non parallel sides.
- Hence, it is not a parallelogram.
Isosceles trapezium :-
- An isosceles trapezium is one In which the non parallel sides are equal
Area :-
- The area of trapezium = ½ × height × (sum of parallel sides)
Perimeter :-
- Perimeter of the trapezium = sum of it's sides
Important points to note :-
- A square can be a rectangle and a kite but a rectangle cannot be a square and a kite can't be square too.
- A rhombus is a parallelogram and a kite, but a kite is not a rhombus.
- A rhombus, square, rectangle are all parallelograms.
- All squares are rhombuses but not all rhombuses are squares.
