Question

there was a deserted land near a colony where people used to throw garbage.colony people united to develop a pond in triangular shape. the land is in the shape of a parallelogram. in the rest of the portion medicinal plant were grown. area of the parallelogram is 200 metre square.calculate the area where medicinal plants are grown

Answer 1

100 metre square will be the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a parallelogram = Base x altitude = 200 m²

since PD is an altitude drawn to the base DC

Hence area of the parallelogram = DC x PD = 200

Also the pond is a triangle shaped with DC as base and PD as altitude

Hence area of the pond

= 1/2 x Base x altitude

= 1/2 x DC x PD

= 1/2 x 200

= 100

Area of the medicinal plant = Area of the land - area of the pond

= 200 - 100

= 100 m²

Hence the area where the medicinal plants were grown is 100 m²
