the area of a triangle is 150 cm square and its sides are in the ratio 3 ratio 4 ratio 5 what is its perimeter
Answers
Let coefficient of ratios be X
a = 3x
b = 4x
c = 5x
Using Heron's Formula,
s = (3+4+5)x/2 = 12x/2 = 6x
\sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)} \\ \sqrt{6x(6x - 3x)(6x - 4x)(6x - 5x)} \\ \sqrt{6x \times 3x \times 2x \times x} \\ \sqrt{36 {x}^{4} } \\ 6 {x}^{2} \\ area \: given = 150 \: {cm}^{2} \\ so. \\ 6 {x}^{2} = 150 \\ {x}^{2} = \frac{150}{6} \\ {x}^{2} = 25 \\ x = \sqrt{25} = 5 \: cm
Now,
a = 5*3 = 15 cm
b = 5*4 = 20 cm
c = 5*5 = 25 cm
Perimeter = 15+20+25 = 60 cm
The perimeter of a triangle is 60 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
let the sides be a= 3x,b=4x and c= 5x
using herons formula
perimeter = 3x+4x+5x
semi perimeter = = = 6x
then area of triangle =
150 =
150 =
150 =
150 = 6x²
x² =
x² =25
x =√25
x= 5 cm
putting the value of x in sides
a= 3x = 3× 5 = 15 cm
b= 4x = 4×5 = 20 cm
c = 5x = 5×5 = 25 cm
then perimeter = a+b+c = 15 +20+25 = 60 cm
hence ,
The perimeter of a triangle is 60 cm
