Question

the base and the height of a triangle are in the ratio 5:3 if the area of the triangle is 67.5 m square find its base and height

Answer 1

Hi friend,

Let the base and height if the triangle be 5x and 3x respectively.

ATQ
1/2 × 5x ×3x = 67.5 m²

1/2×5x × 3x = 675/10m²

5x × 3x = 675/10 ×2

5x × 3x = 135

15x² = 135

x² = 135/15

x² = 9

x = 3

Base of the triangle = 5x = 5×3= 15 m
Height of triangle = 3x = 3×3 = 9 m
