Question

The base and height of a triangle are in the ratio 4:5 and the area is 1000 find height and base find solution

Answer 1

Let the base of triangle =4x

Then the height of triangle =5x

According to question

Area of triangle = 1/2× base × height

1000. = 1/2×4x×5x

1000×2. =20x^2

X^2. = 1000×2/20

X^2. =100

X = square root 100

So x = 10

Then base = 4x = 4×10= 40

Height = 5x = 5×10= 50
