Question

The bottom side of the quadrilateral in the picture is a diameter of the circle and the top side is a chord parallel to it Calculate the area of the quadrilateral .need it fast

Answer 1

Answer:

Most geometry so far has involved triangles and quadrilaterals, which are formed by intervals on lines, and we turn now to the geometry of circles. Lines and circles are the most elementary figures of geometry − a line is the locus of a point moving in a constant direction, and a circle is the locus of a point moving at a constant distance from some fixed point − and all our constructions are done by drawing lines with a straight edge and circles with compasses. Tangents are introduced in this module, and later tangents become the basis of differentiation in calculus.

Step-by-step explanation:

• A circle is the set of all points in the plane that are a fixed distance (the radius) from a fixed point (the centre).
• Any interval joining a point on the circle to the centre is called a radius. By the definition of a circle, any two radii have the same length. Notice that the word ‘radius’ is being used to refer both to these intervals and to the common length of these intervals.
• An interval joining two points on the circle is called a chord.
• A chord that passes through the centre is called a diameter. Since a diameter consists of two radii joined at their endpoints, every diameter has length equal to twice the radius. The word ‘diameter’ is use to refer both to these intervals and to their common length.
• A line that cuts a circle at two distinct points is called a secant. Thus a chord is the interval that the circle cuts off a secant, and a diameter is the interval cut off by a secant passing through the centre of a circle centre.
