Given,
ABCD is a rectangle.
Formula:
Area of the rectangle = Length × Breadth
Calculation:
Let AB = DC = l cm and
BC = AD = b cm, then
Draw a perpendicular OP AB and OQ DC,
Similarly, draw a perpendicular OS BC and OR AD,
Area of △AOB = (1/2) × AB × OP
Area of △AOB = (1/2) × l × OP ----(1)
Area of △DOC = (1/2) × CD × OQ
Area of △DOC = (1/2) × l × OQ ----(2)
Add equation (1) and equation (2)
Area of △AOB + Area of △DOC = (1/2) × l × (OP + OQ)
OP + OQ = b
Area of △AOB + Area of △DOC = (1/2) × l × b
Area of △AOB + Area of △DOC = (1/2) × Area of rectangle ----(x)
Statement B is correct.
Similarly,
Area of △AOD = (1/2) × AD × OR
Area of △AOD = (1/2) × b × OR ----(3)
Area of △BOC = (1/2) × BC × OS
Area of △BOC = (1/2) × b × OS ----(4)
Add equation (3) and equation (4)
Area of △AOD + Area of △BOC = (1/2) × b × (OR + OS)
OR + OS = l
Area of △AOD + Area of △BOC = (1/2) × l × b
Area of △AOD + Area of △BOC = (1/2) × Area of rectangle ----(y)
Statement C is correct.
Equation (x) and equation (y)
Area of △AOB + Area of △DOC = Area of △AOD + Area of △BOC
Statement A is also correct.
∴ All the statements are correct
