The sides of a triangle are in the ratio 21x, 13x and 18x and its
perimeter is 182 cm. Find the area of the triangle.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
21x + 13x + 18x = 182
52x = 182
x = 3.5
a = 21×3.5=73.5
b= 13×3.5=45.5
c= 18×3.5=63
So these are the sides.Now u can use herons formula to find the area.You know herons formula..right??
a+b+c=s
root of s×(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
Do the rest. Good luck
Solution
Given :-
- All Side of triangle = 21x , 13x , 18x
- Perimeter is = 182 cm
Find :-
- Area of triangle
Explanation
Using Formula
Now,
➠ Perimeter of triangle = 182
➠ (21x) + ( 13x) + (18x) = 182
➠ 52x = 182
➠ x = 182/52
➠ x = 14/4
➠x = 7/2
➠ x = 3.5 cm
Since
All side of triangle be
- First side (21x) = 21 × 3.5 = 73.5 cm
- Second side (13x) = 13 × 3.5 = 45.5 cm
- Third side (18x) = 18 × 3.5 = 63 cm

For Area of Triangle,
By Heroen Feron's Formula
★Semi perimeter (S) = (Sum of all side of triangle)/2
Here, let
ABC be a triangle ,
where,
- AB = 73.5 cm
- BC = 45.5 cm
- CA = 63 cm
Then,
➠ S = (73.5 + 45.5 + 63)/2
➠S = 182/2
➠S = 91 cm
Area of triangle
★ Area = √[S(S-AB)(S-BC)(S-CA)]
Keep all above Values,
➠ Area = √[91(91-73.5)(91-45.5)(91-63)]
➠Area = √[91 × 17.5 × 45.5 × 27]
➠ Area = √(1,95,6386.25)
➠Area = 1398.56 cm²
Hence
- Area of triangle will be = 1398.56 cm²
