Answers
Given,
- Two adjacent side of Parallelogram are 74 cm and 40 cm .
- One of parallelogram diagonal is 102 cm
To Find :
- Area of Parallelogram = ?
Find :
- Suppose the two adjacent side of parallelogram be a and b side of traingle .
- Suppose the length of diagonal be c side of traingle
Therefore ,
⇒These two sides and one diagonal divide the parallelogram into two triangle .
Now Find Triangle Area :
Now Using Heron's Formula to Find Area of triangle :
Now Find Area of Parallelogram :
⇒Area of Parallelogram = 2 x Area of Triangle
⇒2 x 1224
⇒2448 cm ²(Answer)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that the two adjacent sides of the parallelogram are a and b
So,
a = 74 cm, b = 40 cm
And,
The length of diagonal :-
c = 102 cm
These two sides and the diagonal forms a triangle
Semi perimeter
s = ( a + b + c ) / 2
s = ( 74 + 40 + 102 ) / 2 = 216 / 2 = 108 cm
Now we will apply Heron's formula,
Area of triangle
Δ = √[s (s - a) (s - b) (s - c)]
= √[108 (108 - 74) (108 - 40) (108 - 102)]
= √{108 × 34 × 68 × 6}
= √{3 × 4 × 9 × 34 × 2 × 34 × 6}
= √{3 × 4 × 9 × 34 × 2 × 34 × 6}
= √{6 × 4 × 9 × 34 × 34 × 6}
= 6 × 2 × 3 × 34
= 1224 sq cm
Now , As we know
Area of parallelogram = 2 × area of triangle
= 2 × 1224
= 2448 sq cm
