Diagonal of the parallelogram divides the parallelogram in to two equal areas.
So area of parallelogram = 2(area of triangle)
According to the given diagram,
AB= 8, AD = 5 and BD = 11
So according to the Heron's formula,
Area of triangle =
and a, b and c are the three sides of the triangle
Area of triangle ABD =
So, area of parallelogram ABCD = 2(area of triangle ABD)
area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 (18.33)
area of parallelogram ABCD = 36.66
area of parallelogram ABCD = 36.7 sq. units
Area of a triangle is equal to 1/2 b(h) so since you already have the height and base, all you need to do is input it back into the equation:
(10)(13)
Multiply 10 & 13 to equal
(130)
Then take half of 130 to get
A = 65
Multiply 10 & 13 to equal
Then take half of 130 to get
A = 65
