1)  

 The area of a quadrilateral is 44 sq. m . The perpendiculars from two opposite vertices to the diagonal are 6 m and 8 m. what is the length of this diagonal

Answer: 6.2857142857143m


SOLUTION 1 :

Given  :

Area of the quadrilateral    =   44 m2

                                   h1        =  6 m 

                                   h2        =   8 m

 Area of the quadrilateral   =   12 x d x (h1+h2) sq units

                                   44       =   12 x d x (6+8)

                                       44    = 12 x d x 14

                    (2 x 44)14       =      d

                          6.2857142857143   m            =      d



2)  

 The area of a quadrilateral is 38 sq. m . The perpendiculars from two opposite vertices to the diagonal are 2 m and 5 m. what is the length of this diagonal

Answer: 10.857142857143m


SOLUTION 1 :

Given  :

Area of the quadrilateral    =   38 m2

                                   h1        =  2 m 

                                   h2        =   5 m

 Area of the quadrilateral   =   12 x d x (h1+h2) sq units

                                   38       =   12 x d x (2+5)

                                       38    = 12 x d x 7

                    (2 x 38)7       =      d

                          10.857142857143   m            =      d
