Answer:
let the sides be 25x,17x,12x
perimeter= 540m
25x+17x+12x=540m
54x=540
x=540/54
x= 10m
So sides will be 250m,170m,120m
Now
s= 250+170+120/2
= 540/2
= 270
Now by herons formula we have
area=√s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
= √270×20×100×150
= 9000m^2
cost of ploughing =9000×10/18.8
=900000/188
=₹ 4787.23

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sides of the triangle be 25x, 17x and 12x
Given,
⇒ 540 = 25x + 17x + 12x
⇒ 540 = 54x
⇒
⇒ 25x = 25 × 10 = 250 m
⇒ 17x = 17 × 10 = 170 m
⇒ 12x = 12 × 10 = 120 m
Let,
=
Area of triangle =
=
=
=3 × 3 × 10 × 10 × 10
Cost of ploughing the field at the rate of Rs. 18.80 per 10 m²
= × 9000
