Question

the sides of an triangle are in the ratio 2:3:5, if the perimeter is 100m, find it area?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the common factor be x

⇒sides are 2x, 3x, 5x

perimeter = sum of all sides

100 = 2x+3x+5x

100= 10x

x=10 m

⇒sides are 20, 30, 50 m

This triangle is not possible as the sum of 2 sides is not greater to the third side..
