Area Problems
The sides of a triangle area in the ratio of 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5 and its perimeter is 94 cm. Find the length of the smallest side of the triangle .
Given ratio = 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5 = 20 : 15 : 12Let length of the sides be 20k, 15k and 12k.Then, according to the question,20k + 15k + 12k = 94? 47k = 94? k = 94/47 = 2Smallest side = 12k = 12 x 2 = 24 cm
Let base = b and altitude = h Then, Area = b x h But New base = 110b / 100 = 11b / 10Let New altitude = HThen, Decrese = (h - 10h /11 )= h / 11? Required decrease per cent = (h/11) x (1 / h ) x 100 %= 91/11 %
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
Area = 1440 / 160 hectares = 9 hectares = 90000 m2? One side = ?90000 m = 300 mSo perimeter = 4 x 300 m = 1200 m ? Cost of fencing = Rs (1200 x 75) / 100= Rs. 900
Given that, l = 2b [Here l = length and b = breadth]Decrease in length = Half of the 10 cm = 10/2 = 5 cmIncrease in breadth = Half of the 10 cm = 10/2 = 5 cm Increase in the area = (70 + 5) = 75 sq cm According to the question, (l - 5) (b + 5) = lb + 75 ? (2b - 5) (b + 5) = 2b2 + 75 [since l = 2b]? 5b - 25 = 75 ? 5b = 100? b = 100/ 5 = 20? l = 2b = 2 x 20 = 40 cm
