We know that area of triangle = ( base x height ) / 2So area of triangle = (BC x AD) / 2 = (AC x BE) / 2 ? (10 x 4.4) / 2 = (11 x h) / 2? h= (10 x 4.4)/11 = 4 cm
Let original length = x and original breadth = y. Original area = xy. New length = x . 2 New breadth = 3y. New area = ❨ x x 3y ❩ = 3 xy. 2 2 ∴ Increase % = ❨ 1 xy x 1 x 100 ❩% = 50%
