Concept
In geometry, triangle is a 3 sided polygon. Semi perimeter is the half of perimeter for any shape.
Given
Sides of triangle are 5x, 5x and 8x
Find
Area of the triangle
Solution
We will calculate the area using the semi perimeter method
a = 5x
b = 5x
c = 8x
Semi perimeter = a+b+c/2
s = 5x + 5x + 8x /2
s = 18x/2
s = 9x
Area = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
= √9x(9x-5x)(9x-5x)(9x-8x)
= √9x * 4x * 4x * x
= √9 * 16 * x⁴
= 3*4√ x⁴
= 12x²
Area of the triangle with sides 5x,5x and 8x is 12x².
