    The diagonal of a quadrilateral shaped field is 24 m and the perpendicular dropped on it from the remaining opposite vertices are 8 m and 13 m. The area of the field is           [SSC (CPO) 2015]

    A)  \[252\text{ }{{m}^{2}}\]

    B)  \[156\text{ }{{m}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[96\text{ }{{m}^{2}}\]

    D)  \[1152\text{ }{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Area of the field = Area of \[\Delta ABD\]+ Area of \[\Delta BDC\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 24\times 8+\frac{1}{2}\times 24\times 13\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 24\times (8+13)\] \[=12\times 21=252\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]
