Heron's formula is
1/2 bh
4/3 x2
The sides of a triangle containing the right angle are 5x cm and (3x - 1) cm. If the area of the triangle is 60cm2, calculate the length of the sides
10cm, 8cm
15cm, 8cm
15cm, 10cm
12cm, 8cm
Triangles with the same base and between the same parallels are of
Equal area
Equal perimeter
Both 1 & 2
None of these
In a right triangle with sides x and y, hypotenuse z, the altitude drawn on the hypotenuse is a, then
xy = a2
1/x + 1/y = 1/a
x2 + y2 = 2a2
Area of an equilateral triangle with side x is
1/2 x2
x2
The base of the traingle is 15dm and its height is 12dm. The height of another triangle of double the area and the base of which is 20 dm is
9 dm
18 dm
8 dm
12.5dm
