Answer:
12 cm is divided into 6 cm each
16 cm is divided into 8 cm each
Step-by-step explanation:
If the diagonals of a parallelogram are 12cm and 16cm, find the length of each segment of a diagonal into which they are divided.State
the property of parallelogram used.
in the parallelogram
opposite sides are equal & parallel Let say ABCD is a parallelogram & Diagonals AC & BD intersect at O
Now comparing A AOB & ACOD
LAOB=LCOD (opposite angles)
LABO = <CDO (ad BD is cutting two ||
lines AB & CD)
Similarly ZBAO = ZDCO (ad AC is cutting two lines AB & CD)
so A AOB ACOD
AO/CO=BO/DO AB/CD
AB = CD
=> AO/CO=BO/DO = 1.
=> AO = CO & BO = DO
AO + CO = AC => AO = CO = AC/2
BO + DO = BD => BO DO = BD/2
Hence Diagonals are bisected
Diagonal 12 cm is divided into 6 cm each
Diagonal 16 cm is divided into 8 cm each
