    Find the area of the given quadrilateral ABCD.

    A) \[~36\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\]                         

    B) \[~24\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\] 

    C)   \[~48\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\]             

    D)   \[~32\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\Delta ABC\]is a right triangle. \[\therefore \]\[A{{C}^{2}}+B{{C}^{2}}=16+9=25\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[AC=5\,cm\] Area of the quad. ABCD = Area of rt. \[\Delta ABC+Area\,of\,rt.\,\Delta ACD\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 4\times 3+\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 12=6+30=36\,c{{m}^{2}}\]
