Q.The sides of a triangle are in the ratio 13:14:15and its perimeter is 84cm. Find the area of the triangle.
Q.The sides of a triangle are 42cm,34cm and 20cm.Calculate its area and the length of the height on the longest side.

⋆ ANSWER ⋆
Let the sides be 13x, 14x and 15x
Perimeter = Sum of all sides
84 = 13x + 14x + 15x
42x = 84
x = 2
So, the sides are a = 26 cm, b = 28 cm and c = 30 cm
s = p/2 = 84/2 = 42 cm
Area = √s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)
= √42(42 - 26)(42 - 28)(42 - 30)
= √42×16×14×12
= 4√14×14×36
= 4×14×6
= 336 cm^2
So, area of triangle = 336 cm^2
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
2. s = semiperimeter = (42+34+20)/2 = 48 cm
a = 42 cm b = 34 cm c = 20 cm
Area = √[ s (s-a) (s-b) (s-c) ]
= √[ 48 × 6 × 14 × 28 ] cm² = 336 cm²
Altitude on the base of 42 cm = h
336 = 1/2 × 42 × h
h = 16 cm
