Question

a) The side of a triangle are in the rotio 1:1.5:2
if the greatest sides is 8 cm find the other two
sides.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Other two sides = 4cm and 6cm

According to the figure -:

So ,

AC = 4 cm

AB = 6 cm

BC = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sides of the triangle are in ratio = 1:1.5:2

Greatest side = 8 cm and in ratio of 2 .

To find :

The length of other two sides

Concept :

First we have to find the length of ratio 1 . To find the length of ratio 1 . We have to first divide 8 cm from the greatest ratio . Then , after that we will get the length of ratio 1 .

After that to find the length of ratio 1.5 multiply the length of ratio 1 from 1.5 .

Let the length of ratio 1 be x

So , the equation will like this -:

$\boxed{\sf{2x=8cm}}$

Solution :

$\leadsto\sf{2x=8cm}$

$\leadsto\sf{x=\dfrac{\cancel{8cm}}{\cancel{2}}}$

$\leadsto\sf{x=4cm}$

Length of other side -:

$\leadsto\sf{4cm\times1.5}$

$\leadsto\sf{6cm}$

Length of other sides are 4 cm and 6 cm .
