Answer:
Area of quadrilateral = 16 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Height of quadrilateral = 8 m
Length of perpendicular on diagonal = 2 m
Find:
Area of quadrilateral
Computation:
We know that, Diagonal divides quadrilateral into two equal triangle
So,
Area of quadrilateral = 2[Area of triangle]
Area of quadrilateral = 2[(1/2)(b)(h)]
Area of quadrilateral = 2[(1/2)(8)(2)]
Area of quadrilateral = 2[(4)(2)]
Area of quadrilateral = 2[8]
Area of quadrilateral = 16 m²
