FAQs on Quadrilaterals- 2 RD Sharma Solutions - Mathematics (Maths) Class 9

1. What are the properties of a quadrilateral?
Ans. A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides. The properties of a quadrilateral include: 1. The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is equal to 360 degrees. 2. The opposite angles of a quadrilateral are equal. 3. The opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel. 4. The diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other. 5. The consecutive angles of a quadrilateral are supplementary.
2. How many types of quadrilaterals are there?
Ans. There are several types of quadrilaterals based on their properties. Some common types of quadrilaterals are: 1. Parallelogram: A quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel. 2. Rectangle: A quadrilateral with all angles equal to 90 degrees. 3. Square: A quadrilateral with all sides and angles equal. 4. Rhombus: A quadrilateral with all sides equal. 5. Trapezium: A quadrilateral with one pair of opposite sides parallel.
3. How can we determine if a quadrilateral is a parallelogram?
Ans. To determine if a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, we need to check its properties. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if: 1. Opposite sides are parallel. 2. Opposite angles are equal. 3. Diagonals bisect each other.
4. What is the interior angle sum of a quadrilateral?
Ans. The interior angle sum of a quadrilateral is always equal to 360 degrees. This means that if we measure all four angles of a quadrilateral and add them together, the total sum will always be 360 degrees.
5. How can we find the area of a quadrilateral?
Ans. The formula to find the area of a quadrilateral depends on its type. Some common formulas to find the area of different types of quadrilaterals are: 1. Parallelogram: Area = base × height 2. Rectangle: Area = length × width 3. Square: Area = side × side 4. Rhombus: Area = (diagonal1 × diagonal2) / 2 5. Trapezium: Area = (sum of parallel sides × height) / 2
