Explanation:
Given, △DEF and △HGI are isosceles triangle on the equal bases DE and GH, which are parallel to FI
with DE = GH = 9 cm and DH = 20 cm.
k's

Clearly, FEGI is a trapezium, [∵ DH || FI]

and ar (trapezium FEGI) = 2 (EG + FI) × DF ...(i)

Since, △DEF is an isosceles right angled triangle.

Therefore, DE = FD = 9 cm

Now, from Eq. (i), we have

ar (trapezium FEGI) = 12 [(20 - 9 - 9) + 20] × 9

Explanation:

Given, AB = a cm, DC = b cm and AB || DC.

Also, E and F are the mid-points of AD and BC, respectively.
So, distance between CD, EF and AB, EF will be same (say h).
Join BD, which intersects EF at M.
Now, in △ABD, E is the mid-point of AD and EM || AB.

So, M is the mid-point of BD, [by mid-point theorem]

and EM = 12 AB ...(i)
Similarly, in △CBD, MF = CD ...(ii)

On adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get

EM + MF = 12 AB + 12 CD

Adding both equations, we have

9. Given Let AD be a median of △ABC.
To prove ar(△ABD) = ar(△ACD)
Construction Draw AN ⊥ BC.

Proof Since, AD is a median of △ABC. So, D is the mid-point of BC.

Then, BD = CD ...(i)
Now, ar(△ABD) = 12 × BD × AN [∵ area of triangle = 12 × base × height]

Given: ABCD is a || gm and EFCD is a rectangle

To Prove: ar(|| gm ABCD) = ar(rect EFCD)
Proof: In △EAD and △EBC
∠E = ∠F = 90
∘
{∵ EFCD is a rectangle}
AD = BC = {opposite sides of || gm}
ED = FC = {opposite sides of rectangle}
∴ △ EAD = △FBC (by RHS)

∴ AE = BF (by C.P.C.T)

Now, Area of || gm ABCD = AB × FC

= (AF + BF) × FC
= (AF + AE) × FC {∵ AE = BF}
= EF × FC
area of || gm ABCD = area of rectangle EFCD
Hence proved.

 From (i) and (ii)
OA = OB = OC = r
Taking O as center, draw a circle of radius r. C(0, r) passes through A, B and C.
Thus, a circle passes through the point A, B and C.
If possible, suppose there is another circle with Centre O' and radius r, passing through A, B and C.
​Then, O' will lie on the perpendicular bisector PQ and RS.
We know that, two lines cannot intersect at more than one point, So O' must coincide with O.
Hence there is one and only one circle passes through three non-collinear points.
