Given : The Sides of Triangle are in the ratio 3:5:7 & Perimeter of Triangle is 600 m .
Exigency to find : Area of Triangle .
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀
❍ Let's Consider the three sides of Triangle be 3x , 5x & 7x .
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Finding Three Sides of Triangle :
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Here a , b & c are three sides of Triangle & we know that Perimeter of Triangle is 400 m .
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Therefore,
- a or First Side is 3x = 3(40) = 120 m
- b or Second Side is 5x = 5(40) = 200 m
- c or Third side is 7x = 7(40) = 280 m
Therefore,
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Finding Semi-Perimeter of Triangle for Finding Area of Triangle :
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Here Perimeter of Triangle is 600 m .
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Therefore,

Given:
- The sides of a triangle are in the ratio 3:5:7
- Perimeter of the triangle is 600m.
To find:
- Area of triangle?
Solution:
• Let's consider ABC is a triangle.
Where,
- A = 3x
- B = 5x
- C = 7x
• Let angle in common be x.
⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀
« Now, By using perimeter of triangle formula,
→ Perimeter of triangle = a + b + c
→ 3x + 5x + 7x = 600
→ 15x = 600
→ x = 600/15
→ x = 40
Thus, The sides of the triangle are 120m,200m & 280m.
⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀
« Now, Let's Find Area of triangle by using herons formula,
As we know that,
→ √s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)
- Side = 120 + 200 + 280/2 = 300
→ √300(300 - 120)(300 - 200)(300 - 280)
→ √300(180)(100)(20)
→ √300(360000)
→ √108000000
→ 6000√3
∴ Hence, Area of of the triangle is 6000√3.
