Chapter 11.4, Problem 1PSA

To determine

To calculate: Area of kite

Answer to Problem 1PSA

Area of kite is $60$ square units.

Explanation of Solution

Given information : Diagonals of kite are $6$ and $20$ respectively.

Formula used : Area of kite = $\frac{1}{2}\times d_1\times d_2$ (where $d_1$ and $d_2$ are diagonals of the kite)

Calculation: As, diagonals of kite are $6$ and $20$ ,

Area = $\frac{1}{2}\times d_1\times d_2$

  $\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 20\\ \Rightarrow \frac{120}{2}\\ \Rightarrow 60\end{array}$
