The sides of a triangular plot are in the ratio of 3:5:7 and its perimeter is 300m. Find its area.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Now Ready
- ratio=x
- 3x + 5x + 7x = 300m
- 15x = 300m
- x = 300/15
- x = 20m
1 side = 20×3=60m
2 side = 20×5= m
3 side = 20×6=120m
area of traingle =60++120

Given :
- The sides of a triangular plot are in the ratio of 3:5:7.
- Perimeter of Triangle = 300m
To Find :
- Area of Triangle
Solution :
⟶ Let the 1st side be 3x
⟶ Let the 2nd side be 5x
⟶ Let the 3rd side be 7x
According to the Question :
➟ Perimeter of Triangle = 300
➟ 3x + 5x + 7x = 300
➟ 8x + 7x = 300
➟ 15x = 300
➟ x = 300 / 15
➟ x = 20
Therefore :
- 1st side = 3x = 3 × 20 = 60m
- 2nd side = 5x = 5 × 20 = 100m
- 3rd side = 7x = 7 × 20 = 140m

✰ Now we will find the area of Triangle using Heron's Formula.
⟼ s = a + b + c / 2
⟼ s = 60 + 100 + 140 / 2
⟼ s = 160 + 140 / 2
⟼ s = 300 / 2
⟼ s = 150m
So semi perimeter is 150m now area will be :
⟹ √s (s - a) (s - b) (s - c)
⟹ √150 (150 - 60) (150 - 100) (150 - 140)
⟹ √150 × 90 × 50 × 10
⟹ 1500√3m²
Thus Area of Triangle is 1500√3m²
