2. In a quadrilateral field ABCD, ZB = 90°, AB = 80 m, BC = 150 m, CD = 120 m andDA = 250 m. Find the area of the field in hectares. Find the price of the field ifit cost12,000 / hectare. |

Answer» angle B = 90° AB = 80m BC = 150m CD = 120m DA = 250m Rs. 18,000 In RIGHT angle ∆ ABC AB² + BC² = AC² ( by Pythagoras theorem ) => (80)² + (150)² = AC² => 6400 + 22500 = AC² => 28900 = AC => AC = 170m now we have to find area of ∆ACD by heron's formula so in triangle ACD then area of triangle ACD, now area of quadrilateral ABCD is; ar(ABCD) = ar(ABC) + ar(ACD) so area of quadrilateral field is 15000m² we know that.. 1 hectare = SQUARE metre / 10000 so area of field is 1.5 Hectare cost = 12,000 / hectare then price of field is; hence, price of the field is Rs. 18000 |
