A convex quadrilateral is a 4-sided figure in which each vertex relies in the interior of the opposite angle and connects the midpoints of opposite sides. This tutorial explains how to calculate the area of convex quadrilateral for kite.
A Kite has four sides A, B, C and D and distance X, where A=5cm,B=6cm,C=10cm,D=8cm, X=7cm distance between the midpoints of the diagonals. Sinθ=60 is the angle between the bimedians.Find the area of convex quadrilateral of the kite
A = 5 cm B = 6 cm C = 10 cm D = 8 cm X = 7 cm Sinθ = 60 degree
Area of convex quadrilateral
Substitute the given values in the formula,
K | =1/4√(2(A2+C2)-4X2)*(2(B2+D2)-4X2)sinθ |
= 1/4 √(2(52+102)-4*72)(2(62+82)-4*72)60 | |
=0.03182cm |
Area of convex quadrilateral for kite = 0.03182 cm
