Find the area of parallelogram ABCD with AB=(3,1,4), AC=(4,0,5).
Adjacent sides and diagonal AC
Adjacent sides and diagonal AC

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: √42
  1. The second adjacent side is AD=AC−AB=(1,−1,1).
  2. Compute AB×AD=(5,1,−4).
  3. Its squared norm is 25+1+16=42.
  4. Therefore the parallelogram area is √42 square units.

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] The second adjacent side is AD=AC−AB=(1,−1,1).
  • [1 mark] Compute AB×AD=(5,1,−4).
  • [1 mark] Its squared norm is 25+1+16=42.
