Explanation

Area of triangle =

$\sqrt { s\left( s-a \right) \left( s-b \right) \left( s-c \right) }$

$S=\dfrac { a+b+c }{ 2 } =\dfrac { 15+14+13 }{ 2 } =21cm$

$\therefore \quad$ area of

$\triangle =\sqrt { 21\left( 21-15 \right) \left( 21-14 \right) \left( 21-13 \right) } =\sqrt { 21\times 6\times 7\times 8 }$

$\sqrt { 3\times 7\times 3\times 2\times 7\times 4\times 2 } =2\times 2\times 3\times 7$

${ 84cm }^{ 2 }$

Now, area of

$\parallel$ gm = area of

$\triangle$ =

$b\times h=84{ cm }^{ 2 }$

$\Rightarrow \quad 15\times h=84\Rightarrow h=\dfrac { 84 }{ 15 } =5.6cm$

$\therefore$ Height of

$\parallel$ gm =

$5.6cm$

$=\sqrt { 21\times 8\times 7\times 6 } =\sqrt { 3\times 7\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 7\times 2\times 3 } =2\times 2\times 3\times 7$

$=\sqrt { 54\times 3\times 17\times 34 } =306{ m }^{ 2 }$

Number of trees

0%
$2000\sqrt{15}$ sq m

Explanation

$\textbf{Step - 1: Finding the sides}$

$\text{Given that the sides are in the ratio }6:7:8$

$\implies a=6x,b=7x,c=8x$

$\text{Perimeter}=a+b+c$

$\implies 420=6x+7x+8x=21x$

$\implies x=20$

$\implies a=120,b=140,c=160$

$\textbf{Step - 2: Calculating area}$

$s=\dfrac{a+b+c}2=210$

$\implies \text{Area}=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

$\implies \text{Area} = \sqrt{210\times90\times70\times50}$

$\implies \text{Area}=2100\sqrt{15}$

$\textbf{Thus, the area of the given field is }\mathbf{2100\sqrt{15}}\textbf{ sq. m.}$

$\therefore$ ar

$\triangle$ ABC =

Explanation

Area of quadrilateral

$ABCD$ = ar

$[\triangle ABC]$ + ar

$[\triangle ACD]$

$\triangle ABC$ :

$ar\ [\triangle ABC] = \dfrac { 1 }{ 2 } \times BC\times AB\\=\dfrac { 1 }{ 2 } \times 40m\times 9m=180{ m }^{ 2 }$

Using pythagoras theorem,

$AC= \sqrt { { AB }^{ 2 }+{ BC }^{ 2 } } \\ =\sqrt { { \left( 9 \right) }^{ 2 }+{ \left( 40 \right) }^{ 2 } }\\ =\sqrt { 1681 } =41m$

Using Heron's formula,

$ar [\triangle ACD] = \sqrt { s\left( s-a \right) \left( s-b \right) \left( s-c \right) } \\\quad s=\dfrac { a+b+c }{ 2 } \\\ \ \ \quad =\dfrac { 41+28+15 }{ 2 } \\\quad \ \ \ =\dfrac { 84 }{ 2 } =42m$

$ar [\triangle ACD ]= \sqrt { 42\left( 42-41 \right) \left( 42-28 \right) \left( 42-15 \right) }\\ \quad \quad \quad \ \ \ \quad =\sqrt { 42\times 1\times 14\times 27 } =126{ m }^{ 2 }$

Therefore, area of quadrilateral

$\therefore$ ar

$\triangle$ ABC =

Explanation

The area of parallelogram

$ABCD = 2 \times Ar \triangle ABC$

Now,

$Ar\ \triangle ABC =\sqrt { s\left( s-a \right) \left( s-b \right) \left( s-c \right) } \quad \\ s=\dfrac { a+b+c }{ 2 } \\=\dfrac { 65+60+25 }{ 2 } \\=75m$

Thus,

$\therefore Ar \triangle ABC = \sqrt { 75\left( 75-65 \right) \left( 75-60 \right) \left( 75-25 \right) } \\=\sqrt { 75\times 10\times 15\times 50 } \\=750{ m }^{ 2 }$

Thus, area of parallelogram

Area

$= \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

So,

$S = \dfrac{8+4+11}{2} = \dfrac{23}{2} = 11.5$

Area

$= \sqrt{11.5(11.5-11)(11.5-8)(11.5-4)}$

$=\sqrt{11.5\times 0.5\times 3.5\times 7.5}$

$= 12.28\text{ cm}^{2}$

Explanation

$Heron's\ Formula\ :$

Area of a triangle =

$\Delta=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

where

$s$ is the semi-perimeter and

$a,\ b$ and

$c$ are the sides of the triangle.

$s=\dfrac{a+b+c}{2}$

Here, for the triangular park,

$a=100\ m,\ \ b=90\ m,\ \ c=110\ m$ and

$s=\dfrac{100+90+110}{2}=150\ m$

Area of the triangular park =

$\Delta=\sqrt{150\times50\times60\times40}=3000\sqrt{2}\ m^2=0.3\sqrt{2}\ ha=0.4242\ ha$

Rate of planting grass =

$Rs.\ 4000\ /ha$

So, the amount to be paid =

$4000\times0.4242=Rs.\ 1696.80$ .

Explanation

According to the Heron's formula, Area (A) of the triangle having sides

$a,b,c$ units is

$A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

where

$s=\cfrac{a+b+c}{2}$

For the given triangle,

$a=b=c=8cm$

$s=\cfrac{8+8+8}{2}=12$

$A=\sqrt{12(12-8)(12-8)(12-8)}$

$A=\sqrt{3\times 4\times 4^{3}}$

$=4\times 4\sqrt{3}$

$=16\sqrt{3}$

Area of the triangle =

$\cfrac{1}{2}\times base \times altitude=16\sqrt{3}$

$\cfrac{1}{2}\times 8 \times$ altitude

$=16\sqrt{3}$

Altitude

$=\cfrac{16\sqrt{3}}{4}=4\sqrt{3}$

$25x+17x+12x=450$

$\implies x= \dfrac{450}{54}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{25}{3}$

So, sides are

$\dfrac{625}{3} , \dfrac{425}{3}, \dfrac{100}{1}$

Area =

$s=semi-perimeter$

$a = \dfrac{625}{3}$ ,

$b = \dfrac{425}{3}$ ,

Explanation

Let, the sides of the original triangle be

so, the semi-perimeter,

$s=\dfrac{a+b+c}{2}$

Original area

$=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

Now every side is doubled

So, the new sides are

$2a, 2b$ and

$2c$

new semi-perimeter,

$s'=\dfrac{2a+2b+2c}{2}=2\left(\dfrac{a+b+c}{2}\right)=2s$

New area

$=\sqrt{s'(s'-2a)(s'-2b)(s'-2c)}$

$=\sqrt{(2s)(2s-2a)(2s-2b)(2s-2c)}$

$=\sqrt{2.2.2.2s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

$=4\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

$=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 60$

$=30$

Now use formula foe area of triangle

Area

$=\sqrt{30(30-12)(30-20)(30-28)}$

$=\sqrt{30\cdot18\cdot10\cdot2}$

$=\sqrt{60\cdot180}$

$=\sqrt{10800}$

$=\sqrt{3600\cdot3}$

$=60\sqrt{3}cm^2$

$\therefore$ Area of triangle

$=60\sqrt{3}cm^2$ .

$\dfrac{\pi}{4}$
0%
$\dfrac{\pi}{4} \sqrt{7}$
0%
$\dfrac{4}{15}$
0%
$\dfrac{4}{15} \sqrt{7}$
0%
$\dfrac{15}{4} \sqrt{7}$

Explanation

Given, triangle of sides

$a,b,c=4,5,6cm$

$\therefore S=\dfrac{a+b+c}{2}$

$=\dfrac{4+5+6}{2}=\dfrac{15}{2}$

Then, area of triangle

$A=\sqrt{S(S-a)(S-b)(S-c)}$

$=\sqrt{\dfrac{15}{2}\left(\dfrac{15}{2}-4\right)\left(\dfrac{15}{2}-5\right)\left(\dfrac{15}{2}-6\right)}$

$=\sqrt{\dfrac{15}{2}.\left(\dfrac{7}{2}\right)\left(\dfrac{5}{2}\right)\left(\dfrac{3}{2}\right)}$

$=\dfrac{15}{4}\sqrt{7}$

Explanation

Area of Equilateral Triangle =

$\dfrac{\sqrt{3}{b^2}}{4}$

where b is the Side of the Triangle.

Area=

$\dfrac{\sqrt{3}\times {20^2}}{4}$

Area=

$173.2{cm^2}$

Explanation

Area of Equilateral Triangle =

$\dfrac{\sqrt{3}{a^2}}{4}$

where

$a$ is the Side of the Triangle.

Given

$a= 18\ cm$

Area

$=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}\times {18^2}}{4}$

Area

$=140.29\ {cm^2}$
