Question

The sides of a triangle are in the ratio 5:12:13 and its perimeter is 150. Find the area
of the triangle.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of the triangle be 5x, 12x and 13x .

Given, the perimeter of the triangle= 150 cm

Since we know the perimeter of the triangle is sum of all the sides.

Therefore A/Q

=> 5x +12x + 13x = 150

=> 30x = 150

=> x= 150/30

=> x= 5 cm.

Therefore the sides of the triangle are

5x=5×5 = 25 cm

12x=12×5 = 60 cm

13x=13×5 = 65 cm
