Prove that a parallelogram circumscribing a circle is a rhombus.
Marking-scheme solution
\[\begin{aligned}
& \text { 2. Since } D E \text { is a straight line therefore } \angle A \\
& \therefore d^{2}=A C^{2}+B C^{2}=(100)^{2}+(40 \sqrt{3})^{2} \\
& \Rightarrow d=\sqrt{14800} \text { or } 20 \sqrt{37} \mathrm{~m}
\end{aligned}
\]
2.
\[\begin{aligned}
& \text { Canvas used }=1650+30=1680 \mathrm{~m}^{2} \\
& \begin{aligned}
\therefore \text { cost of canvas used } & =200 \times 1680 \\
& =₹ 3,36,000
\end{aligned}
\end{aligned}
