1)  

 The area of a quadrilateral is 37 sq. m . The perpendiculars from two opposite vertices to the diagonal are 6 m and 6 m. what is the length of this diagonal

Answer: 6.16666666667m


SOLUTION 1 :

Given  :

Area of the quadrilateral    =   37 m2

                                   h1        =  6 m 

                                   h2        =   6 m

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

                                   37       =   12 x d x (6+6)

                                       37    = 12 x d x 12

                    (2 x 37)12       =      d
