Question

a farmer had an isosceles triangular fields. each of two equal sides of this field is twice as larger as the third side.if the boundary of the field is 500meter. find the dimensions of the field.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The dimensions are 200,200 and 100 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the same side of the triangle be x meters

and let the third side be y meters.

ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION

x = 2y.......(i)

x+x+y=500..........(ii)

Solving the (ii) part:

2x+y= 500

Substituting the value of x= 2y in equation (ii).

2(2y) + y = 500

4y+ y = 500

5y=500

y=100 meters

Substituting the value of y=100 meters in equation (i).

x=2(100)

x= 200 meters

Therefore, the two same sides are 200 meters each and the third side is 100 meters.
