Question

The length of the diagonal of a quadrilateralis 40 cm
and the perpendicular drawn to it from the opposite
vertices are 12 cm and 7.5 cm. Find the area of
the quadrilateral. draw to it from the opposite vertices are 12 cm and 7.5 cm
​

Answer 1

Answer:390cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let abcd be a quadrilateral

AC=40cm

A quadrilateral=2 triangles

So area of ABC=0.5*40*12=240cm

And area of ACD=0.5*40*7.5=150cm

AREA OF ABCD=240+150=390cm
