The Perimeter of a triangle is 50 m. one side of triangle is 4 m longer than the smaller side and third side is 6m less than the twice the smaller side find area of triangle
Answers
Answer:
Perimeter of triangle = 50 cm
Let the length of the smaller side be x cm.
Length of the second side = (x + 4) cm
Length of the third side = (2x-6) cm
Sum of lengths of triangle = Perimeter
x + (x + 4) + (2x-6) = 50
x + x + 4 + 2x - 6 = 50
x + x + 2x + 4 - 6 = 50
4x - 2 = 50
4x = 50 + 2
x = 52/4 = 13
x = 13
Length of the first side = x cm = 13 cm
Length of the second side = (x + 4) cm = (13 + 4) cm = 17 cm
Length of the third side = (2x - 6) cm = (2 * 13 - 6) cm = 20 cm
FINDING OUT THE AREA OF THE TRIANGLE USING HERON'S FORMULA
Let a = 13, b = 17, c = 20
s = \frac{a+b+c}{2}s=
2
a+b+c
s = \frac{13 + 17 + 20}{2}s=
2
13+17+20
s = \frac{50}{2}s=
2
50
s = 25s=25
\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}
s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)
= \sqrt{25(25-13)(25-17)(25-20)}=
25(25−13)(25−17)(25−20)
= \sqrt{25 * 12 * 8 * 5}=
25∗12∗8∗5
= \sqrt{12000}=
12000
= 20\sqrt{30}=20

I have just simplified the square root as it is a surd.
∴ 20 \sqrt{30}20

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the Length of the smaller side = x cm
Length of the second side = (x + 4) cm
Length of the third side = (2x - 6) cm
Perimeter of a Triangle = 50 cm
According to Question now,
➳ Perimeter of triangle = Sum of all sides
➳ 50 = x + (x + 4) + (2x - 6)
➳ 50 = x + x + 4 + 2x - 6
➳ 50 = 4x - 2
➳ 4x = 50 + 2
➳ x = 52/4
➳ x = 13
Therefore,
Length of the smaller side = x = 13 cm
Length of the second side = (x + 4) = 13 + 4 = 17 cm
Length of the third side = (2x - 6) = 2(13) - 6 = 26 - 6 = 20 cm

Now, we will find the Semi Perimeter of triangle :
Let a = 13 cm, b = 17 cm = c = 20 cm
➳ S = a + b + c/2
➳ S = 13 + 17 + 20/2
➳ S = 50/2
➳ Semi Perimeter = 25 cm
Now, we will find the area of triangle by using herons Formula :
