In the diagram above PS||RQ, |RQ| = 6.4cm and perpendicular PH = 3.2cm. Find the area of SQR
Attached Figure / Diagram
A
5.12cm2
B
9.60cm2
C
10.24cm2
D
20.48cm2
E
40.96cm2
Verified Correct Answer: C.
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
Area of a triangle = \(\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h\)
Area of \(\Delta\) SQR = \(\frac{1}{2} \times 6.4 \times 3.2\)
= 10.24 cm\(^2\)
