Question
Find the area of quadrilateral, whose diagonals of lengths 18 cm and 13 cm intersect each other at right angle.
Solution
When two diagonals of a quadrilateral intersect each other at right angles,
Area of quadrilateral = `(1)/(2) xx "Product of the diagonals"`
∴ Area of required quadrilateral
= `(1)/(2) xx 18 xx 13`
= 117cm2.
