Given
- Area of the triangle = 16 hectares
- Height of the triangle = 40 dam
To find
- Base of the triangle
Solution
Firstly, we will make the units same.
As we know,
• 1 hectare = 10000 m²
~Multiply the value by 10000 m²
⟶ 16 × 10000
⟶ 160000 m²
★ Area of the triangle = 160000 m²
Height of the triangle = 40 dam
As we know,
• 1 dam = 10 m
~Multiply the value by 10 m.
⟶ 40 × 10
⟶ 400 m
★ Height of the triangle = 400 m
Formula to be used :-
❖ Area of the triangle = 1/2 × b × h
where,
- b = base of the triangle
- h = height of the triangle
Substituting the given values,
⟶ 160000 = 1/2 × b × 400
⟶ 160000 = 200 × b
⟶ 160000/200 = b
⟶ 800 = b
∴ Base of the triangle = 800 m
______________________________
Verification :-
Area of the triangle = 1/2 × b × h
⟶ 1/2 × 800 × 400
⟶ 400 × 400
⟶ 160000 m²
Hence, verified.
