Question

the base of triangular field is three times it's altitude. if the cost of sowing the field at rupees 58 per hectare is rupees 783, find its base and height. please help me ​

Answer 1

Answer:

We know that

area of triangular field = cost of sewing field/ Rate of sowing = 783/58 = 13.5 hectare

1 hectare = 10000 m2

13.5 hectare = 135000 m2

Area of triangular field = 13.5 hectare = 135000 m2

Let altitude of triangular field be h.

The base of a triangular field is three times its altitude.

Hence, base of triangular field = 2h

Area of field = 1/2 bh

1/2 3h2  = 135000

we get h = 300

Hence, altitude = h = 300 m

base = 900 m
