If the area of a triangle is 54cm square and the difference between the sides of a right angles triangle is 3cm, find its perimeter
Answers
Answer:
Given, difference between the sides of a right any led triangle = 3 cm and area of right angled triangle = 54 cm2
Let p, b, h be the perpendicular, base and hypotenuse of given right angled triangle respectively.
∴ Difference between the sides of triangle = Base – perpendicular of triangle
⇒ b – p = 3
⇒ b = 3 + p ... (1)
Again, Area of right angled triangle = 54
p ≠ –12, because perpendicular of a triangle cannot be negative
∴ p = 9
On putting value of p in (1) we get
b = 3 + p
⇒ b = 3 + 9 = 12 cm
Now, the hypotenuse of right angled triangle
∴ Perimeter of triangle = Sum of its all sides
= h + p + b
= 15 + 9 + 12 = 36 cm
Hence, the perimeter of given right angle triangle is 36 cm.

Answer:
36 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Here given ;
Area =54cm^2
and the difference between two sides of right angles triangle is 3cm.
So, let the sides be x and x+3
Area = 54
=>1/2(x)(x+3)=54
=>(x^2+3x)/2=54
=>x^2+3x=108
=>x^2+3x-108=0
=>(x+12)(x-9)=0
we get x= -12 and 9
we can't take negative ,so
x=9cm
and other side is x+3=12 cm
now ,hypotenuse
=
So perimeter
= 9+12+15
=36 cm
hope this helps☺️☺️
