Answer: 2598 m
Step-by-step explanation: Let the sides be 3x, 5x and 7x respectively.
Perimeter= sum of all side.
300m= 3x +5x+7x
300= 15x
x =20m
Therefore the length of the sides are 60m, 100m and 140m.
s = 60+ 100+ 140/ 2
s = 300/2 = 150m
area= root[ s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)]
= root[150 x 90 x 50 x 10 ]
= root[13500 x 500]
= root[6750000]
= 2598m aprrox.

Answer:
Given:-
The perimeter of a triangle is 300 m. If its sides are in the ratio 3:5:7.
Find:-
Find the area of the triangle .
As per the given request let us assume.
Side (1) = 3x
Side (2) = 5x
Side (3) = 7x
We know that:-
= Sum of all sides = 300
= 3x + 5x + 7x = 300
= 20
Hence, the three semi-perimeter are:-
3 × 20 = 60.
5 × 20 = 100.
7 × 20 = 140.
Using formula:-
Area = √s(s - a) (s - b) (s - c)
Calculations:-
= 150 (150 - 60) (150 - 100) (150 - 140)
= 150 (90 × 50 × 10)
= 1500 √3 m²
Therefore this is the required answer.
