Find the area of the parallelogram whose length is 60 cm and width is 25 cm and one diagonal is 45 cm is? |
100\(\sqrt{13}\) cm2 75\(\sqrt{13}\) cm2 200\(\sqrt{26}\) cm2 80\(\sqrt{13}\) cm2 |
200\(\sqrt{26}\) cm2 |
Semi - perimeter (s) of ΔABC = \(\frac{60 + 45 + 25}{2}\) = 65 Now, Area of ΔABC = \(\sqrt {s × (s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}\) = \(\sqrt {65 × (65 - 45 )(65 - 25)(65 - 60)}\) = \(\sqrt {65 × 5 × 40 × 20}\) = \(\sqrt {5 × 13 × 5 × 5 × 8 × 5 × 4}\) = 100\(\sqrt {26}\)cm2 Therefore, Area of Parallelogram = 2 × Area of ΔABC = 2 × 100\(\sqrt {26}\) = 200\(\sqrt {26}\)cm2 |
