Let area 100 m2Then, side = 10 m New side = 125 % of 10= (125/100) x 10= 12.5 m New area = 12.5 x 12.5 m2=(12.5)2 sq. m? Increase in area = (12.5)2 - (10)2 m2= 22.5 x 2.5 m2=56.25 m2% Increase = 56.25 %
Area of a triangle formed by joining the mid point of the sides of the triangle is 1/4th of area of the original triangle .So area of ? DEF = 36/ 4 = 9 m2
Let lateral side = (5y) cm and base = (4y) cm ? perimeter = 5y + 5y + 4y = 14 ?y = 1So, the sides are 5 cm , 5 cm and 4 cm Now s= 1/2 (5 + 5 + 4) cm = 7 cm (s-a) = 2 cm (s-b) = 2 cm and (s-c) = 3 cm? Required Area = ? (7 x 2 x 2 x 3) cm2=2?21 cm2
