Unit 10: Area of Triangles and Quadrilaterals (त्रिभुज र चतुर्भुजको क्षेत्रफल) Formulae

Introduction

Unit 10: Area of Triangles and Quadrilaterals (त्रिभुज र चतुर्भुजको क्षेत्रफल) focuses on calculating the area and perimeter of various 2D geometric shapes. This unit is fundamental for understanding geometry in the SEE curriculum.

Key Notations:

  • $A$: Area (क्षेत्रफल)
  • $P$: Perimeter (परिधि)
  • $b$: Base (आधार)
  • $h$: Height (उचाइ)
  • $s$: Semi-perimeter (अर्ध-परिधि)
  • $d_1, d_2$: Diagonals (विकर्णहरू)

Important Properties (महत्वपूर्ण गुणहरू)

  • Parallelograms on the same base and between the same parallel lines are equal in area.
    एउटै आधार र उही समानान्तर रेखाहरू बिचमा रहेका समानान्तर चतुर्भुजहरूको क्षेत्रफल बराबर हुन्छ ।
  • The area of a triangle is half the area of a parallelogram standing on the same base and between the same parallel lines.
    एउटै आधार र उही समानान्तर रेखाहरू बिचमा रहेका त्रिभुजको क्षेत्रफल समानान्तर चतुर्भुजको क्षेत्रफलको आधा हुन्छ ।
  • Triangles on the same base and between the same parallel lines are equal in area.
    एउटै आधार र उही समानान्तर रेखाहरू बिचमा रहेका त्रिभुजहरूको क्षेत्रफल बराबर हुन्छ ।
  • Triangles with equal area standing on the same base are between the same parallel lines.
    एउटै आधारमा बनेका र क्षेत्रफल बराबर भएका त्रिभुजहरू उही समानान्तर रेखाहरूको बिचमा पर्दछन् ।
  • The median of a triangle bisects it into two triangles of equal area.
    त्रिभुजको मध्यिकाले त्रिभुजलाई बराबर क्षेत्रफल भएका दुई त्रिभुजमा विभाजन गर्दछ ।

1. Triangles (त्रिभुजहरू)

Figure (चित्र) Area (क्षेत्रफल) Perimeter (परिधि)
General Triangle
(त्रिभुज) h b
$$A = \frac{1}{2}b \times h$$
$$A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$$
$$P = a + b + c$$
$$s = \frac{a+b+c}{2}$$
Equilateral Triangle
(समबाहु त्रिभुज) a
$$A = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2$$ $$P = 3a$$
Isosceles Triangle
(समद्विबाहु त्रिभुज) b a
$$A = \frac{b}{4}\sqrt{4a^2-b^2}$$ $$P = 2a + b$$
Right Angled Triangle
(समकोणी त्रिभुज) p b h
$$A = \frac{1}{2} b \times p$$ $$P = p + b + h$$
$$h = \sqrt{p^2 + b^2}$$

2. Quadrilaterals (चतुर्भुजहरू)

Figure (चित्र) Area (क्षेत्रफल) Perimeter (परिधि)
Parallelogram
(समानान्तर चतुर्भुज) h b
$$A = b \times h$$ $$P = 2(l + b)$$
or $2(AB + AD)$
Rhombus
(समबाहु चतुर्भुज) d1 d2
$$A = \frac{1}{2} d_1 \times d_2$$ $$P = 4a$$
Quadrilateral
(चतुर्भुज) d p1 p2
$$A = \frac{1}{2} d(p_1 + p_2)$$ $$P = AB+BC+CD+DA$$
Trapezium
(समलम्ब चतुर्भुज) h a b
$$A = \frac{1}{2} h (p_1 + p_2)$$
(Note: $p_1, p_2$ are parallel sides)
$$P = Sum\ of\ all\ sides$$
Arrowhead
(एरोहेड)
$$A = \frac{1}{2} d_1 \times d_2$$ $$P = AB+BC+CD+AD$$
Kite
(चङ्गा) d1 d2
$$A = \frac{1}{2} d_1 \times d_2$$ $$P = AB+BC+CD+DA$$
