The sides of a triangle are x,x+1,2x-1 and its area is x✓10. Find the value of x
Answers
Hope it will HELP you a lot❤
Answer:
Given,
Sides of a triangle are x, x+1, 2x-1
Area of a triangle = x√10 sq. unit
Therefore,
Perimeter of a triangle = x + (x+1) + (2x-1) unit
= x+x+1+2x-1 unit
= 4x unit
Semi-perimeter (s) = Perimeter/2
= 4x/2 unit
= 2x unit
A.T.Q,
Area of a triangle = x√10 sq. unit
or, √{s (s-a) (s-b) (s-c)} = x√10
or, √[2x (2x-x) {2x-(x+1)} {2x-(2x-1)}] = x√10
or, √{2x × x (2x-x-1) (2x-2x+1)} = x√10
or, √{2x^2 × (x-1) × 1} = x√10
or, √(2x^3 - 2x^2) = x√10
squaring both side
or, {√(2x^3 - 2x^2)}^2 = (x√10)^2
or, 2x^3 - 2x^2 = 10x^2
or, 2x^3 - 2x^2 - 10x^2 = 0
or, 2x^3 - 12x^2 = 0
or, 2x^2 (x - 6) = 0
or, (x-6) = 0/2x^2
or, x - 6 = 0
or, x = 6
Answer :- The value of x is 6.
