Here

S=

Area of a triangular ground =

100 (100 40) (100-70) (100-90) sq m

100 60 30 10 sq m

= (10 10 6 5) sq m = ( 600 2.24 ) sq m = 1344 sq m Cost of leveling the ground = Rs ( 8 1344 ) =Rs 10752 Ans06. The lengths of the sides of the walls are 122m, 22m and 120m. As, 1202 + 222 = 14400 +484 = 14884 = (122)2 Walls are in the form of right triangles 1 Area of one wall = Base height 2 1 = 120 22 sq m 2 = 1320 sq m. Rent = Rs 5000/sq m per year 5000 1320 4 Rent for 4 month = Rs 12 = Rs 22,00,000

Ans07.

Here, a = 2cm, b = 5cm and c = 5cm Perimeter = a+ b+ c = (2 + 5 + 5) = 12 cm S = semi perimeter 12 = = 6 cm 2 using Herons formula,
Area of triangle =

s ( s a) (s-b) (s-c) sq cm

6 (6-2) (6-5) (6-5) sq cm

= 24 sq cm = 4.9 sq cm Ans08.
The sides of the wall is in the triangular from with sides, A = 15 m, b = 6 m and c = 11 m 15 + 6 + 11 S= m 2 = 16 m Area to be painted in colour = Area of the side wall = s ( s a) (s-b) (s-c) sq cm

= 16 (16 5) (16-6) (16-11) sq m = = Ans09.

50 sq m 2 sq m

Area of an isosceles triangle =

a 4b 2 a 2 4

a 4b 2 a 2 4 a or 100 a 2 4

= 12 = 12

Squaring both sides, we have a 2 (100 a 2 ) = 144 16 or or = 2304 a 100a + 2300 = 0 ( a 2 64 ) ( a 2 36 ) = 0

4 2

Either a2 = 64 i.e. a = 8 or a2 = 36 i.e. a = 6

Required base = 8 cm or 6 cm

Ans10.

Let the sides of the triangle be 13x, 12x and 5x Perimeter of a triangle = 450 m 13x + 12x + 5x = 450 m or 30x = 450 x = 15
The sides are 13 15, 12 15, and 5 15 I.e. 195 m, 180 m and 75 m a+b+c 450 S= = = 225 m 2 2

Area of the triangle =

s ( s a) (s-b) (s-c) sq m

= =

225 (225-195) (225-180) (225-75) sq m

225 30 45 150 sq m = (15 15 2 3 5) sq m = 6750 sq m.

Ans11.

To find the area of ABC 45 + 42 + 39 S= cm 2 = 63 cm Area of ABC = 63 (63-45) (63-42) (63-39) sq cm = 63 18 21 24 sq cm = 9 7 2 3 2 sq cm = 756 sq cm Let h be the height of the parallogram Now, Area of //gm BCDE = Area of ABC h BC = 756 or 45h = 756 756 h = 45 h = 16.8 cm Hence, height of the //gm = 16.8 cm We have, right angle ABC, AC2 =AB2 + BC2 AC2 = 92 + 402 AC2= 1680 AC = 41

The first group has to clean the area of ABC which is right triangled Now, 1 Area of ABC = 40 m 9 m 2 = 180 sq m The second group has to clean the area of ACD which has AD=28 m, DC=15m and AC=41 Hence, 28 + 15 + 41 S= 2 = 42 m Area of ACD = 42 (42-28) (42-15) (42-41) sq m =
42 14 27 1 sq m

= 7 3 2 7 2 9 3 sq m = 126 sq m
First group cleaned more = (180 126) sq m = 54 sq m Total area cleaned by students = (180 + 126) sq m = 306 sq m

Ans13.

Let x and y be the two lines of the right . AB = x cm, BC = y cm and AC = 10 cm By the given condition, Perimeter = 24 cm Or x + y = 14 By Pythagoras theorem, x 2 + y 2 = (10)2 = 100 From (1), x 2 + y 2 = (14)2 Or x 2 + y 2 + 2xy = 196 100 + 2xy =196 xy =
96 2 = 48 sq cm

Area of ABC =

1 xy sq cm 2 1 = 48 sq cm 2 =24 sq cm

(4)

again, (x-y) 2 = (x+y) 2 4xy = (14)2 - 4 48 or (i) x-y = 2

When, x-y = 2 and x+y = 14, then 2x = 16 or x = 8, y = 6 When, X y = -2 and x + y = 14, then 2x = 12 or x = 6, y = 8 Verification by using Herons formula:Sides are 6 cm, 8 cm and 10 cm 24 S= = 12 cm 2 Area of ABC = 12 (12-6) (12-8) (12-10) sq cm = 12 6 4 2 sq cm = 24 sq cm Which is same as found in (4) Thus, the result is verified.
