  1. First, construct a diagram with the given parameter.

    Ncert solutions class 9 chapter 12-11

    Now, apply Pythagorean theorem in ΔABC,

    AC2 = AB2+BC2

    ⇒ 52 = 32+42

    ⇒ 25 = 25

    Thus, it can be concluded that ΔABC is a right angled at B.

    So, area of ΔBCD = (½ ×3×4) = 6 cm2

    The semi perimeter of ΔACD (s) = (perimeter/2) = (5+5+4)/2 cm = 14/2 cm = 7 m

    Now, using Heron’s formula,

    Area of ΔABD

    Ncert solutions class 9 chapter 12-12

    = 2√21 cm2 = 9.17 cm2 (approximately)

    Area of quadrilateral ABCD = Area of ΔABC + Area of ΔABD = 6 cm2 +9.17 cm2 = 15.17 cm2
