Given
- AD= 12cm
- BD= 16cm
- AC = 52cm
- BC = 48cm
To Calculate
- Area of shaded region __?
Step by Step Explanation
In Tri. ABD
Where
AD = 12cm ( Given)
BD = 16cm ( Given)
AB = ?
By Pythagoras theorem
( hypotenuse) ² = ( Base ) ²+ ( Perpendicular) ²
➥ hypotenuse ² = 12²+16²
➥ hypotenuse ² = 144+256
➥ hypotenuse ²= 400
➥ hypotenuse = 20cm
Area of triangle ABD = 1/2×b×h
➥ 1/2 ×12×16
➥ 96cm²
Area of triangle ABC
Where
Sides are = 52cm,48cm,20cm
Semi Perimeter = (a+b+c)/2
➥( 52+20+48)/2
➥ 120/2
➥ 60cm
☆ By Heron's formula ☆
Putting values,
Area of triangle ABC = 4800cm²
Area of Shaded region = Area of triangle ABC - Area of triangle ABD
➥ 480-96
➥ 384cm²
- Area of Shaded region = 384cm²
