Given : The area of a triangle is 60 square units. two of its sides are 8 units and 17 units, then the third side is
To Find : Third Side
Solution:
Let say third side is x
s = (17 + 8 + x)/2 = (25 + x)/2
Area of Triangle = √((25 + x)/2)((25 + x)/2 - 17))((25 + x)/2 - 8))((25 + x)/2 - x)))
60 = √((25 + x)/2)((x-9)/2)((9 + x)/2 - 8))((25 - x)/2 - x)))
=> 60 = (1/4) √(25² - x²)(x² - 9²)
=> 240 = √(25² - x²)(x² - 9²)
=> 240² = (25² - x²)(x² - 9²)
put x² = y
=> 240² = (25² - y)(y - 9²)
=> 240² = (625 - y)(y - 81)
=> 57600 = -y² + 706y - 50625
=> y² - 706y + 108225 = 0
=> (y - 481)(y - 225) = 0
=> y = 481 or y = 225
=> x² = 481 or x² = 225
=> x = √481 or 15
Third side can be √481 ≈ 21.93 cm or 25 cm
