Construct a quadrilateral where and The relation between diag. and diag. is

Construct a quadrilateral \( \boldsymbol{A B N V} \) where \( \boldsymbol{A} \boldsymbol{V}=\mathbf{7} \boldsymbol{c m}, \boldsymbol{B} \boldsymbol{A}=\mathbf{8} \boldsymbol{c m}, \boldsymbol{B} \boldsymbol{N}= \) \( \mathbf{1 0} c \boldsymbol{m}, \boldsymbol{N} \boldsymbol{V}=\mathbf{5} \boldsymbol{c m} \) and \( \boldsymbol{B} \boldsymbol{V}=\mathbf{1 1} \boldsymbol{c m} \) The relation between diag. \( A N \) and diag. \( \boldsymbol{B} \boldsymbol{V} \) is

  • A. \( A N>B V \)
  • B. \( A N<B V \)
  • C. \( A N=B V \)
  • D. None of the above

Step-by-step solution

By placing the quadrilateral in a coordinate system with BV on the x-axis, we computed coordinates of A and N from the given side lengths using the distance formula. The calculated length AN ≈ 2.78 cm, while BV = 11 cm, so AN < BV.
