Answer:
for all the above question use herons formula
Step-by-step explanation:
11. Let the third side be x.
Two equal sides measure is 12 cm
•.• Perimeter of ∆
= {(2 × equal sides) + (third side)} cm = {(2 × 12) + x} cm
= (24 + x) cm
But, the given perimeter = 30 cm.
A/q,
24 + x = 30
x = 30 - 24
x = 6
Hence, Length of third side = 6 cm
Now, height of ∆
Let ∆ABD the right angled ∆ with AB as the hypotenus.
Then, (AB)^2 = (AD)^2 + (BD)^2 [Py.the.] (12)^2 = (AD)^2 + (3)^2
144 = (AD)^2 + 9
144 - 9 = (AD)^2
( AD)^2 = 135
AD = √3 × 3 × 3 × 5
AD = 3√15 cm
Hence, height of ∆ = 3√15 cm
✓✓Area of the ∆
= (1/2 × base × height) sq. unit
= (1/2 × 6 × 3√15 ) cm^2
= 9√15 cm^2
= 34.85 cm^2 ~ 35 cm^2
12. Side of equilateral ∆ = a unit
Hence, area of the ∆ = (√3)a^2/4 = 1.732 a^2 /4 =0.433 a^2 unit^2
