Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadrilateral is divided into two triangles

Triangle 1:

Diagonal = 16m , h = 12m

Area1 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}base *height[/tex]

         [tex]=\frac{1}{2}*16*12\\\\=8*12\\\\= 96 m^{2}[/tex]

Triangle 2:

Area2 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*16*4[/tex]

           = 8 * 4

           = 32 square meter

Area of quadrilateral = 96 + 32 = 128 sq.m
