In triangle Abc Ab :Bc 3:4 Bc:Ac=5:4. (a) If Ab=30cm what is the length of bc ? (b) If bc =20cm what is the length of Ab and Ac. (c) what is Ab:Bc:Ac?
Answers
Answer:
It is given that,AB/BC=3/4
AB=30cm
so 30/BC=3/4
BC=30×4/3
BC=40 cm
In Triangle ABC, AB : BC = 3 : 4 , BC : AC = 5 : 4.
- (a) If AB = 30cm, We have to find the length of BC
- (b) If BC = 20cm, We have to find the length AB and BC.
- (c) AB : BC = AC = ?
(a) Here, AB : BC = 3 : 4
Let proportionality constant is x.
⇒AB = 3x and BC = 4x
Given, AB = 3x = 30 cm
⇒x = 10 cm
so, BC = 4x = 4 × 10 cm = 40 cm
(b) Here, BC : AC = 5 : 4
Let proportionality constant is p.
⇒BC = 5p and AC = 4p
Given, BC = 5p = 20 cm
⇒p = 4 cm
so, AC = 4p = 4 × 4 cm = 16 cm
(c) Here, AB : BC = 3 : 4 and BC : AC = 5 : 4.
We have to just make BC equal in both ratios.
so, multiply 5 in first ratio and multiply 4 in 2nd ratio.
we get,
AB : BC = 3 × 5 : 4 × 5
BC : AC = 4 × 5 : 4 × 4
⇒AB : BC : CA = (3 × 5) : (4 × 5) : (4 × 4)
= 15 : 20 : 16
