Given:
➨ The perimeter of triangular field is 270 metre .
➨ It's sides are in the ratio 25 : 17 : 12.
To Find :
The area of the triangular field.
Solution:
(Refer the attachment)
We are given,
The sides of the triangular field are in the ratio
➺ 25 : 17 : 12.
Let the sides of the triangular field be 25m , 17m , and 12m.
We are also given ,
➨ The perimeter of triangular field is 270 metre .
⛬ 25m + 17m + 12m = 270.
➪ 54m = 270 .
➪ m = 270 / 54
➪ m = 5
Hence , The three sides of the triangular field are.
25m = 25 × 5 = 125 metre.
17m = 17 × 5 = 85 meter.
12m = 12 × 5 = 60 metre.
We know ,
We know,
Area of triangular field = 2,250( approx ) m²
Correct Question :
The perimeter of triangular field is 270 metre and its sides are in the ratio 25 : 17 : 12. find its area .
Solution :
Given :
- Perimeter of the triangular field = 270 metre.
- Its sides are in the ratio 25 : 17 : 12.
To find :
- Area of triangular field =?
Step-by-step explanation :
It is Given that,
The sides of the triangular field are in the ratio 25 : 17 : 12.
Now,
Let the sides of the triangular field be 25x , 17x , and 12x.
It is Given that ,
The parameter of triangular field is 270 metre .
We know that,
Perimeter = Sum of all sides.
Substituting the values, we get,
➮ 270 = 25x + 17x + 12x
➮ 270 = 54x
Or, 54x = 270
➮ x = 270 / 54
➮ x = 5
Therefore, We got the value of, x = 5.
Hence ,
The three sides of the triangular field,
25x = 25 × 5 = 125 metre.
17x = 17 × 5 = 85 meter.
12x = 12 × 5 = 60 metre.
Now
Area of traingle, (By heron's formula)
S = 125+ 85 + 60/2
= 270/2
= 135
Heron's formula = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
Substituting the values in the above formula, we get,
=√(135×(135 - 125)(135 - 85)(135 - 60)
=√(135 × 10 × 50 × 75)
=√5,062,500
= 2250
Therefore, Area of the triangular plot = 2250 m².
