Question

The base and the height of a triangle are in
the ratio 5: 3. If the area of the triangle is
67.5 m2; find its base and height.​

Answer 1

Answer:

let, x

base =5x

height =3x

5x+3x=180

8x=180

x=180/8

x=22.5

again,

so, the base=5x

5×x

5×22.5=112.5

the height =3x

3×X

=3×22.5=67.5
