Question

The base and height of a triangle are in the ratio 4 ratio 5 if the area of the triangle is 90 square metres find the measure of its base and height​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, base of triangle be 4x.

And,height of triangle be 5x.

Given,

Area of triangle be 90m^2.

1/2×4x×5x=90.

10x^2=90

X^2=9

X=root 9

x=3 .

Hence, base of triangle (4x)=4×3=12m.

And, height of triangle(5x)=5×3=15m.

Answer 2

Answer:

12m, 15m
