Area Problems
The question given below contain two statements giving certain data. You have to decide whether the data given in the statements are sufficient for answering the question ? Question : What is the height of a right-angled triangle ? Statements : A. The area of the triangle is 20 times its base. B. The perimeter of the triangle is equal to that of a square of the side 10 cm.
Area of the square field = 1 hectare = 10000 m2Side of the square = ? 10000 m = 100 mSide of another square field = 100 + 1 = 101 m? Required difference of area = [(101)2 - (100)2] m2=[(101 + 100 ) (101 - 100) ] m2= 201 m2
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
