Area Problems
The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is equal to 14 cm . The lateral side is to the base in the ratio 5 : 4 the area of the triangle is?
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
? 22/7 x r2 = 13.86 x 10000? r2 = (13.86 x 10000 x 7) / 22? r = 210 m ? Circumference = [2 x (22/7) x 210 ] m = 1320 m Cost of fencing = Rs. (1320 x 20)/100= Rs . 264
let ABCD be the given parallelogram area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x (area of triangle ABC) now a = 30m, b = 14m and c = 40m s=1/2 x (30+14+40) = 42 Area of triangle ABC = s s - a s - b s - c = 42 12 28 2 = 168sq m area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x 168 = 336 sq m
