Given :
- Perimeter of Triangular Ground = 900 m
- sides of triangular ground are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5
To find :
- Are of triangular ground Using Heron's Formula
Formula required :
- Heron's formula
Ar (Δ) = √( s (s - a) (s - b) (s - c) )
[ where, s is semi-perimeter of triangle; a, b, c are three sides of triangle ]
Solution :
Given that sides of triangle are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5
so, Let three sides of triangle be
- a = 3 x
- b = 4 x
- c = 5 x
now, since perimeter of triangle is 900 m
therefore,
→ a + b + c = 900
→ 3 x + 4 x + 5 x = 900
→ 12 x = 900
→ x = 75
so, three sides of triangle would be
- a = 3 (75) = 225 m
- b = 4 (75) = 300 m
- c = 5 (75) = 375 m
now,
semi-perimeter of triangle will be
→ s = 900 / 2
→ s = 450 m
Using Heron's formula
→ Ar (Δ) = √( s (s - a) (s - b) (s - c) )
→ Ar (Δ) = √( 450 × (450 - 225) × (450 - 300) × (450 - 375) )
→ Ar (Δ) = √(450 × 225 × 150 × 75)
→ Ar (Δ) = 33750 m²
therefore,
- Area of triangular field would be 33750 m² .
