Area of equilateral triangle = ?3a2/4 = x ......(i)And perimeter = 3a = y ? a = y/3 ....(ii)Now, Putting the value of a from Eq. (ii) in Eq. (i). we get?3 (y/3)2/4 = x ? x = ?3 x y2/36? x = y2/3?3x = y2/12?312?3 x = y2On squaring both sides, we get y4 = 432x2
Let original length = x metres and original breadth = y metres. Original area = xy sq.m Increased length = 120 100 and Increased breadth = 120 100 New area = 120 100 x * 120 100 y = 36 25 x y m 2 The difference between the Original area and New area is: 36 25 x y - x y 11 25 x y Increase % = 11 25 x y x y * 100 = 44%
Let the side of the square = y cmThen, breadth of the rectangle = 3y/2 cm ? Area of rectangle = (40 x 3y/2) cm2= 60y cm2? 60y = 3y2? y = 20Hence, the side of the square = 20 cm
