Answer:
9000 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
let side 1 = 12a
let side 2 = 17a
let side 3 = 25a
Perimeter = 540cm
side 1 + side 2 + side 3 = perimeter
12a + 17a + 25a = 540
54a = 540
a = 540\54 = 10cm
side 1 = 120cm
side 2 = 170cm
side 3 = 250cm
s = a\2 + b\2 + c\2
= 120\2 + 170\2 + 250\2
= 540\2 = 270\2
area = √270 (270 - 120) (270 - 170) (270 - 250)
= √270 (150) (100) (20)
= √81000000
= 9000cm^2

Answer:
- Sides of a triangle are in the ratio of 12:17:25 and its perimeter is 540cm.
- Area of Triangle
- 12x
- 17x
- 25x
12x +17x + 25x = 540
54x =540
x = 10
Therefore the value x is 10
- 12x =12 *10 =120
- 17x =17 *10=170
- 25x= 25 * 10=250
The sides of the triangle are 120,170,250
S = a+b+c/2
120 +170 +250 /2
270
By using herons formula
√s( s-a) (s-b) (s-c)
√270(270-120) (2 70-170) (270-250)
√270*150*100*20
√81000000
9000cm
Therefore the area of the triangle is 9000 cm².
