Answer :
- Area of triangle is 60cm².
Given :-
- Perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 50 cm one of its side is 24 cm and the other two sides are equal.
To Find :-
- Find it's area ?
Solution :-
- Other two equal sides y cm and y cm.
• Using formula,
- Perimeter of ∆ = a + b + c
Where,
- a = first side of ∆
- b = second side of ∆
- c = third side of ∆
We have,
- a = 24 cm
- b = y cm
- c = y cm
- Perimeter of ∆ = 50 cm
• Putting all values in formula,
➻ 50 = 24 + y + y
➻ 50 = 24 + 2y
➻ 50 - 24 = 2y
➻ 26 = 2y
➻ y = 26/2
➻ y = 13
- Hence, other two equal sides of triangle 13 cm and 13 cm.
• Using formula,
- s = (a + b + c)/2
Where,
- s = semi perimeter of ∆
- a = first side of ∆
- b = second side of ∆
- c = third side of ∆
We have,
- a = 24 cm
- b = 13 cm
- c = 13 cm
- s = ?
• Putting all values in formula,
➻ s = (24 + 13 + 13)/2
➻ s = (24 + 26)/2
➻ s = 50/2
➻ s = 25
- Hence, semi perimeter of ∆ (s) is 25 cm.
Now, we have all required values. So, let's find the area of given triangle by using well known formula I.e, heron's formula,
• Using formula,
- A = √[(s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)]
Where,
- A = area of ∆
- s = semi perimeter of ∆
- a = first side of ∆
- b = second side of ∆
- c = third side of ∆
We have,
- a = 24 cm
- b = 13 cm
- c = 13 cm
- s = 25 cm
- A = ?
• Putting all values in formula,
➻ A = √[(25(25 - 24)(25 - 13)(25 - 13)]
➻ A = √[25(1)(12)(12)]
➻ A = √(25 × 1 × 12 × 12)
➻ A = √(5 × 5 × 12 × 12)
➻ A = 5 × 12
➻ A = 60
- Hence, area of given triangle is 60 cm².
