Sides of a triangle are in the ratio of 12:17:25 and its perimeter is 540cm. Find its area.
Answers
Answer:
let the sides of triangle be 12x, 17x, 25x
Perimeter = 12x + 17x + 25x
540 = 54x
540/54 = x
x = 10
Therefore, 12x = 12 × 10 = 120
17x = 17 × 10 = 170
25x = 25 × 10 = 250
Semiperimeter = 120+170+250/2
= 540/2 = 270cm
Area of ∆ = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
= √ 270(270-120) (270-170) (270-250)
= √ 270 × 150 × 100 × 20
= √ 3×9×10 × 3×5×10 × 10×10 × 4×5
= 3×3×10×10×2×5
= 9000cm²
Area of ∆ = 9000cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let side be x
Side A=12x
Side B=17x
Side c=25x
Perimeter of triangle = 540cm
=12x+17x+25x = 540cm
=54x =540cm
=x=540/54 =10 cm
Side A =12x = 12×10=120
Side B = 17x= 17×10=170
Side C = =25x=25×10=250
Semi perimeter = a+b+c/2
=120+170+250/2
=540/2 = 270
Area of triangle = Square root of s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)
=Square root of 270(270-120) (270-170)(270-250)
=Square root of 270×150×100×20
=9000cm2
