Question

Find the area of the quadrilateral ABCD in which AB is 9 cm,BC is 40 cm,CD is 28 cm, DA is 15 cm and ABC 90 dgree angle.​

Answer 1

Answer:

243 sq cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Find the area of the quadrilateral ABCD in which AB=9cm , BC=40cm , CD=28cm, DA =15cm and ∆ABC = 90°

Now ABCD is a quadrilateral.

Triangle ABC = 90

In right angle triangle ABC

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

         = 9^2 + 40^2

           = 81 + 1600

          =  1681

So AC = 41 cm

Now area of triangle = 1/2 x b x h

                               = 1/2 x 9 x 40 = 180 sq cm

Now to find the other side of triangle using heron's formula we get

s = a + b + c / 2

s = 15 + 41 + 28 / 2

s = 42 cm

Now area of triangle ACD

 = √s (s - a)(s - b)(s - c)

= √42(42 - 15)(42 - 41)(42 - 28)

 = √42 x 27 x 1 x 14

 = 126 sq cm

So Area of quadrilateral will be 126 + 180 = 306 sq cm
