Answer:
In the polygon EFGHI, let's draw straight line GJ parallel to diagonal FI and GJ touches the side HI on the point J.
Now the area of Polygon EFGHI = Area of ΔEFI + Area of ΔGHJ + Area of the Trapezium FGJI
In the Polygon MNOPQR, the diagonal NQ is parallel to Parallel sides OP and RM.
∴ Area of Polygon MNOPQR = Area of Trapezium MNQR + Area of Trapezium OPQN.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the polygon EFGHI, let's draw straight line GJ parallel to diagonal FI and GJ touches the side HI on the point J.
Now the area of Polygon EFGHI = Area of ΔEFI + Area of ΔGHJ + Area of the Trapezium FGJI
Area of Triangle = x base x height
Area of Trapezium = x Sum of the parallel sides x height
In the Polygon MNOPQR, the diagonal NQ is parallel to Parallel sides OP and RM.
∴ Area of Polygon MNOPQR = Area of Trapezium MNQR + Area of Trapezium OPQN.
