Diagonal of square = ?2a [a = side]4?2 = ?2 a a = 4 cmNow, area of square = a2 = (42) = 16Side of a square whose area is 2 x 16.a12 = 32 ? a1 = ?32 ?a14?2Now, diagonal of new square = ?2a = ?2x 4 ?2 = 8 cm
Area of a triangle formed by joining the mid point of the sides of the triangle is 1/4th of area of the original triangle .So area of ? DEF = 36/ 4 = 9 m2
We know that area of triangle = ( base x height ) / 2So area of triangle = (BC x AD) / 2 = (AC x BE) / 2 ? (10 x 4.4) / 2 = (11 x h) / 2? h= (10 x 4.4)/11 = 4 cm
