Let original length = x and original breadth = y. Decrease in area = xy - ❨ 80 x x 90 y ❩ 100 100 = ❨ xy - 18 xy ❩ 25 = 7 xy. 25 ∴ Decrease % = ❨ 7 xy x 1 x 100 ❩% = 28%
Given that, area = 40 sq cm, base = 28 cm and height = perpendicular = ?Area = (base x perpendicular) / 2 ? 40 = (28 x perpendicular) / 2 ? perpendicular = 40/14 = 20/7 = 26/7 cm
Let h be the altitude of triangle.So area of triangle = (1/2)xh area of square = x2From question area of square = area of triangle x2 = (1/2)xh ? h = (2x2)/x = 2x
