Step-by-step explanation:
a) Area of rectangle = l x b
= 3 x 8
= 24 cm^2
b) Area of right angled triangle = 1 x b x h
2
= 1 x 8 x 3
2
= 12 cm^2
c) Rectangle can be called as Parallelogram. A theorem states that a triangle and Parallelogram having same base and under same parallel areas have a relation in which triangle's area is half the area of parallelogram so
APB = 24
2
= 12 cm^2
d) A theorem states that two triangles under same parallel lines and having same base have equal area so
AQB = 12 cm^2
