Hello!!!!
Hope you are doing great!!!!
Consider P is the mid point of AD,and a line is drawn from P to B.
CT is the perpendicular drawn from C to line PB. ( assumed T is the centre of PB)
Area of paralellogram ABCD = bh sq.units
base = BC,,,,,,Height = AB
In triangle BTC ,,, CT=5,TB=6
From pythagorous theorm
BC^2= CT^2+TB^2
BC^2=5^+6^2
BC^2=61
BC=7.8
In Parallelogram the parallel sides are equal;
therefore BC=AD
In triangle ABP ,A/c to pythagorus theorm
BP^2=AP^2+AB^2 (AP=AD/2,AP=7.8/2),,,,,Given BP=12
12^2=(7.8/2)^2+AB^2
AB^2=144-15
AB^2=129
AB=11.3
Area of parallelogram = base*height
=BC*AB
=7.8*11.3
Area of parallelogram=88.14 cm^2
Hope it helps!!!!
Question : ABCD is a trapezium with AD and BC parallel sides and E is a point on BC. The ratio of the area of ABCD to that of AED is:
Question : A triangle and a parallelogram have the same base 28 cm and the same area. If the height of the parallelogram is 12 cm, then find the length of the altitude of the triangle.
Question : ABCD is a quadrilateral. The length of the diagonal AC is 24 cm. The sum of the perpendicular drawn from vertex B and D on the diagonal AC is 10 cm. What is the area of the quadrilateral?
Question : A secant PAB is drawn from an external point P to the circle with centre O, intersecting it at A and B. If OP = 17 cm, PA = 12 cm, and PB = 22.5 cm, then the radius of the circle is:
Question : AB is a chord in a circle of radius 13 cm. From centre O, a perpendicular is drawn through AB intersecting AB at point C. The length of OC is 5 cm. What is the length of AB?
