A farmer was having a field in the form of a parallelogram PQRS. She took any point Aon RS and joined it to points P and Q. In how many parts the fields is divided? Whatare the shapes of these parts? The farmer wants to sow wheat and pulses in equalportions of the field separately. How should she do it?

`/_APQ`
PQRS is a parallelogram
PQ||SR
`area(/_APQ)=1/2area(PQRS)`
`area(APQ)+area(PAS)+area(AQR)=area(PQRS)`
`area(PAS)+area(AQR)=1/2(PQR)`

Kamla has a triangular field with sides 240 m, 200 m, 360 m, where she grew wheat. In another triangular field with sides 240 m, 320 m, 400 m adjacent to the previous field, she wanted to grow potatoes and onions. She divided the field in two parts by joining the mid point of the longest side to the opposite vertex and grew potatoes in one part and onions in one part. How much area (in hectares) has been used for wheat,potatoes and onions? ( 1 hectare = 10000 m^2 )

Fig. shows some of the electric field lines due to three point charges arranged along the vertical axis. All three charges have the same magnitude. (a) What are the signs of each of the three charges? Explain your reasoning. (b) At what points(s) is the magnitude of the electric field the smallest? Explain your reasoning. Explain how the fields produced by each individual point charge combine to give a small net field at this point or points. (c ) Two point charges q and -q are placed at a distance d apart. What are the points at which the resultant electric field is parallel to the line joining the two charge? .
