Question

Find the area of following Quadrilateral​

Answer 1

Answer:

area of trapezium AEDC

= 1/2 x (a+b) x h

= 1/2 x (8+12) x 2

= 1/2 x 20 x 2

= 10 x 2

= 20 cm^2

area of triangle ABC

= 1/2 x b x h

= 1/2 x 12 x 4

= 24 cm^ 2

now,

area of the given figure

= area of trapezium AEDC + area of triangle ABC

= (20 + 24 ) cm^2

= 44 cm^2
