Question:A parallelogram has sides 30 m and 14 m and one of its diagonal is 40 m long. Then, its area is :
A `336 m^2`
B `168 m^2`
C `480 m^2`
D `372 m^2`
/98
+ Answer
A
+ ExplanationLet ABCD be a 11 gm in which AB = 30 m BC = 14 m & AC = 40 m.
Clearly, area of 11 gm ABCD = 2 (area of ABC).
Let a = 30, b = 14 & c = 42.
Then, `s = 1/2 (a + b + c) = 42`
