1)  

 The area of a quadrilateral is 43 sq. m . The perpendiculars from two opposite vertices to the diagonal are 5 m and 3 m. what is the length of this diagonal

Answer: 10.75m


SOLUTION 1 :

Given  :

Area of the quadrilateral    =   43 m2

                                   h1        =  5 m 

                                   h2        =   3 m

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

                                   43       =   12 x d x (5+3)

                                       43    = 12 x d x 8

                    (2 x 43)8       =      d

                          10.75   m            =      d



2)
