Correct Question :-
- The base and height of a triangle are in the ratio 3:2 and the area is 108cm² find its base and height.
Given :-
- The base and height of a triangle are in the ratio 3:2
- The Area of the Triangle is 108cm²
To Find :-
- Base and Height of the Triangle.
Solution :-
❏ As we know that, Area of Triangle is given by [ Area of Triangle = ½ × Base × Height ]
⟼ Let the Base of Triangle be 3x
⟼ Let the Height of Triangle be 2x
Putting the Values :
➞ Area of Triangle = ½ × Base × Height
➞ 108 = ½ × 3x × 2x
➞ 108 = 3x²
➞ 108 / 3 = x²
➞ 36 = x²
➞ √36 = x
➞ 6cm = x
________________
Verification :
⟹ Area of Triangle = ½ × Base × Height
⟹ Area of Triangle = ½ × 3x × 2x
⟹ Area of Triangle = ½ × (3 × 6) × (2 × 6)
⟹ Area of Triangle = ½ × 18 × 12
⟹ Area of Triangle = 18 × 6
⟹ 108 = 108
Hence Verified
________________
Therefore :
- Base of Triangle = 3x = 3 × 6 = 18cm
- Height of Triangle = 2x = 2 × 6 = 12cm
