Question

Which of the following figures lie on the same base and between the same parallels. In such a case, write the common base and the two parallels

Answer 1

(i) Trapezium $ABCD$ and $△PDC$ lie on the same $DC$ and between the same parallel lines $AB$ and $DC$.

(ii) Parallelogram $PQRS$ and trapezium $SMNR$ lie on the same base $SR$ but not between the same parallel lines.

(iii) Parallelogram $PQRS$ and $△RTQ$ lie on the same base $QR$ and between the same parallel lines $QR$ and $PS$.

(iv) Parallelogram $ABCD$ and $△PQR$ do not lie on the same base but between the same parallel lines $BC$ and $AD$.

(v) Quadrilateral $ABQD$ and trapezium $APCD$ lie on the same base $AD$ and between the same parallel lines $AD$ and $BQ$.

(vi) Parallelogram $PQRS$ and parallelogram $ABCD$ do not lie on the same base $SR$ but between the same parallel lines $SR$ and $PQ$.
