- Find the area of a triangle whose sides measure 8 cm, 10 cm and 12 cm.
Options- A. 8?63 sq cm
- B. 5?63 sq cm
- C. 6?53 sq cm
- D. 7?93 sq cm
- Correct Answer
- 5?63 sq cm
ExplanationGiven that, a = 8 cm, b = 10 cm and c = 12 cm
We know, that
s = (a + b + c)/2
= (8 + 10 + 12)/2
= 30/2 = 15 cm
? (s - a) = (15 - 8) = 7 cm
(s - b) = (15 - 10) = 5 cm
(s - c) = (15 - 12) = 3 cm
? Area = ?s(s - a) (s - b) (s - c)
= ?15 x 7 x 5 x 3
= ?1575
= ?25 x 63
= 5?63 cm - 1. The area of an equilateral triangle whose side is 8 cms is?

Correct Answer: 16?3 cm2
Explanation:
Req. Area = ?3/4 x a2 = ?3/4 x 82 cm2
= 16?3 cm2
Correct Answer: 4 cm
Explanation:
Area of equilateral triangle = ?3/4 a2 = 4?3.
? a2 = 16
? a = 4 cm
Correct Answer: 4 :3
Explanation:
Ratio of area = a2/ ?(3/4) a2
= 4/?3 = 4:?3
Correct Answer: 300%
Explanation:
Original area = ?(d/2)2
= (?d2) / 4
New area = ?(2d/2)2
= ?d2
Increase in area = (?d2 - ?d2/4)
= 3?d2/4
? Required increase percent
= [(3?d2)/4 x 4/(?d2) x 100]%
= 300%
Correct Answer: 4:1
Explanation:
Let the diagonal of one square be (2d) cm
Then, diagonal of another square = d cm
? Area of first square = [ 1/2 x (2d)2] cm2
Area of second square = (1/2 x d2) cm2
? Ratio of area = (2d)2/ d2
= 4/1 = 4: 1
Correct Answer: 15 cm
Explanation:
Given that, a = 6 cm, b = 4 cm and c = 5 cm
Required perimeter = a + b + c
= 6 + 4 + 5 cm
= 15 cm
Correct Answer: 26/7 cm
Explanation:
Given that,
area = 40 sq cm,
base = 28 cm and
height = perpendicular = ?
Area = (base x perpendicular) / 2
? 40 = (28 x perpendicular) / 2
? perpendicular = 40/14 = 20/7
= 26/7 cm
Correct Answer: 1 cm
Explanation:
Given that, area = 10 sq cm,
perpendicular = 20 cm and base = ?
area = (base x Perpendicular) / 2
? 10 = (base x 20) / 2
? base = 1 cm
Correct Answer: 16.76 cm2
Explanation:
Area of parallelogram = Base x Height
= 8.06 x 2.08 = 16.76 cm2
Correct Answer: 120 sq m
Explanation:
Required area = Length x Breadth
= 15 x 8 = 120 sq m
