Let the smaller side of the triangle be(a) x cm.
Second side(b) = (4+x)cm.
Third side(c) = (2x-6)cm.
Given,
Perimeter = 50cm.
Therefore,
 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \:  \:  50 = x +( 4 + x) + (2x - 6) \\  =>50 = x + 4 + x + 2x  - 6 \\  =  > 50 = 4x - 2 \\  =  > 4x = 52 \\  =  >x = 13cm.



Using Heron's formula,
Area
 =  \sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}  \\ where \:  \:  \:  \:  \: s =  \frac{ a+  b+ c}{2} \\  =  \sqrt{25(25 - 13)(25 - 17)(25 - 20)} \\  =  \sqrt{25 \times 12 \times 8 \times 5} \\  =  \sqrt{5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 3 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 } \\  =  5 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \sqrt{5 \times 3}  \\  = 40 \sqrt{15} {cm}^{2}.
