Correct Answer
Option B
Explanation
To determine the length of the diagonal of the quadrilateral, we can use the formula for the area of a quadrilateral when the perpendiculars from the opposite vertices to a diagonal are given. The formula is: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Diagonal} \times (\text{Sum of the perpendiculars}) \] Given: - Area of the quadrilateral = 227.2 cm┬▓ - Length of the perpendiculars = 7.2 cm and 8.8 cm Let's denoteтАжRead More
