The base and height of a triangle are in the
ratio 4: 5. If the area of the triangle is 90 sq.
cm, find the measures of its base and height.
Answers
SO MATE LET ME ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.PLEASE MARK IT AS BRAINLIEST AND GIVE IT A THANKS AND 5 STAR PLEASE.
The base is 32 cm and height is 40 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
let the base be=4x
height =5x
area of triangle=1/2*4x *5x
90=10x²
x²=90/10
x²=9
x=3
b=4*3=12
h=5*3=15
or
let the base and the height be 4x and 5x.
area of a triangle=1/2*b*h
90=1/2*4x*5x
90=2x*5x
90=10x^2
90/10=x^2
9=x^2
x=3
base=4x=4*3=12m
height=5x=5*3=15m

Gɪᴠᴇɴ :-
- Area of Triangle = 90 cm²
- Ratio of Base and height = 4 : 5
ᴛᴏ ғɪɴᴅ :-
- Measures of base and height
sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ :-
Let the ratio of base (b) and height (h) ne 4x : 5x
then,
According to Question :-
- Area of Triangle = 90 cm²
We know that,
- Area of triangle = ½ × base × height
➮ 90 = ½ × 4x × 5x
➮ 90 × 2 = 20x²
➮ 180 = 20x²
➮ x² = 180/20
➮ x² = 9
➮ x = √9
➮ x = 3
Hence,
- Base (b) = 4x = 4×3 = 12cm
- Height (h) = 5x = 5×3 = 15 cm
