Given perimeter of isolated triangle is 6+3root2.find area of triangle?
Read Solution (Total 2)
-
- area of trangle
when sides are given is A=sqrtof(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))----(1)
where perimeter s=a+b+c
in our case a,b,c=b ;bcoz isolated trangle
6+3root2=a+2b
a=(6+3root2)-2b
substitute in equ--(1)
and get solution - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- area of isoceles triangle=1/4(b*sqt 0f 4a^2-b^2).---(1)
since isoceles a=c,P=2a+b (since Perimeter= a+b+c)
Also b=aroot2 (sice b^2=a^2+a^2)
Therefore P=2a+aroot2
given P=6+3root2 ,6+3root2=2a+aroot2 => a=3
therefore b= 3root2
subsititute a & b in (1), we get Area=9/2 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
