^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this quadrilateral would be having two triangles
one triangle with base 10 cm and height 4 cm
one triangle with base 10 cm and height 6cm
now
the area of triangle is 1/2 X base X height
so
for the 1st triangle
1/2 X 10 X 4
30 ----------1
now for the second triangle
1/2 X 10 X 6
20 --------------2
now adding 1 and 2 we get
30 + 20
50
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
hope it helps:)
