Area and Related Concepts

Key Concepts

Area of a Triangle:
- Formula: $\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$
Area of a Parallelogram:
- Formula: $\text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height}$
Area of a Rhombus:
- Formula: $\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{product of diagonals}$
Area of a Trapezium:
- Formula: $\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{height} \times (\text{sum of parallel sides})$

Examples

Finding Area of Quadrilateral ABCD:
- Given: $AC = 22 \text{ cm}, BM = 3 \text{ cm}, DN = 3 \text{ cm}$
