Question

The altitude and base of a triangle having area 600sq. cm are in the ratio25:3. Find altitude and base

Answer 1

Let altitude of the triangle be 25x and base be 3x
Area=1/2*base*altitude
So, 1/2*3x*25x=600
=75x^2/2=600
=x^2=600/75*2
=x^2=16
=x=root over 16=4
Hense, altitude =25*4=100cm
Base=3*4=12cm
