If a quadrilateral is split into two triangles by drawing a diagonal then the area of the quadrilateral is equal to the sum of the areas of the triangles.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Area of any quadrilateral can be found out by splitting it into two triangles.

Area of rectangle = $\Delta$ABD + $\Delta$BDC
Area of trapezium = $\Delta$ABD + $\Delta$BDC
So, the given statement is true.
