Area Problems
The length of a rectangle is twice its breadth. If its length is decreased by 5 cm and the breadth is increased by 5 cm, the area of the rectangle is increased by 75 cm 2 . Therefore , the length of the rectangle is?
We know that in any triangle "the sum of two sides is always greater than its third side" and "the difference of two sides is always less than its third side".(i) 2 + 3 is not greater than 5 (ii) |5 - 2| not less than 3
Let a = 13, b = 14 and c = 15. Then, s = 1 2 a + b + c =21 (s- a) = 8, (s - b) = 7 and (s - c) = 6. Area = s s - a s - b s - c = 21 × 8 × 7 × 6 = 84 sq.cm
