Class 7 Maths Exercise 9.2 Extra Questions

One side of a parallelogram is 14 cm. Its distance from the opposite side is 16.5 cm. Find the area of parallelogram.

Here, base = 14 cm and height = 16.5 cm.
So, area of the parallelogram = base x height
= (14 x 16.5) cm2 = 231 cm²

Find the area of a rhombus. the lengths of whose diagonals are 36 cm and 22.5 cm.

Area of the rhombus = ½ x (product of diagonals)
= ½ x 36 x 22.5 cm² = 405 cm²
Hence, the area of the rhombus is 405 cm²

Areas of Parallelogram and Rhombus

FORMULAE:
(i) Area of a parallelogram = (base x height) sq units.
PROOF: Let ABCD be a parallelogram. Join BD.
Then, BD divides the parallelogram into equal triangles.
Draw DE Ʇ AB
Area of parallelogram ABCD= 2 x (area of triangle ABC)
= 2 x (1/2 x AB x DE) sq units = (AB x DE) sq units
= (base ´ height) sq units.

Class 7 Maths Exercise 9.2 Important Questions

Find the area of a triangle in which base = 25 cm and height = 14 cm.

Here, base = 25 cm and height = 14 cm.
So, area of the triangle = ½ x base x height
= ½ x 25 x 14 cm² = 175 cm²

What is the relationship between a parallelogram and a triangle?

We see that each triangle takes up precisely one half of the parallelogram. From this, we see that the area of a triangle is one half the area of a parallelogram, or the area of a parallelogram is two times the area of a triangle.

Can a parallelogram have right angles?

In a parallelogram, if one of the angles is a right angle, all four angles must be right angles. If a four-sided figure has one right angle and at least one angle of a different measure, it is not a parallelogram; it is a trapezoid.

Area of a rhombus = 1/2 x (product of diagonals)

PROOF:
Let ABCD be a rhombus whose diagonals AC and BD intersect at a point O.
Let AC = d1 and BD = d2
We know that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.
Now, in right triangle AOB, we have:
area (triangle AOB) = (1/2 x OA x OB) = ½ x d1 x d2)
so, area of rhombus ABCD = 4 x area (triangle AOB) = 4 x (1/8 x d1 x d2) = d1 x d2 sq units.
So, area fo a rhombus = ½ x product of diagonals sq units

Areas of Triangles

FORMULAE
(i) Consider a triangle in which the base and the corresponding height (or altitude) are given.
Then. area of the triangle = ½ x base x height sq units.
(ii) In a right triangle, the sides other than the hypotenuse are called its legs.
Then. area of a right triangle = (1/2 x product of legs) sq units.
(iii) Let each side of an equilateral triangle be a unit.
Then, area of the equilateral triangle = √(2/3) a2 sq units.

Heron’s formula

Let a, b, c be the sides of a triangle ABC. Then, s = ½ x (a + b + c).
A Greek mathematician, Heron, gave the formula:
Area of triangle ABC = √{s(s – a) (s – b) (s – c)} sq units)
