The base of a triangle is equal to the perimeter of a square whose diagonal is $6 \sqrt{2}$ cm,and its height is equal to the side of a square whose area is 144 $cm^{2} $. The area of the triangle (in $cm^{2} $) is: |
288 216 144 72 |
144 |
Diagonal of square = a\(\sqrt {2}\) Area of right angled triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × Base × Height Perimeter of square = 4 × side We know, a\(\sqrt {2}\)= 6\(\sqrt {2}\) a = 6 side of square Perimeter = 4 × 6 = 24 = base of the triangle Let the height = h h2 = 144 h = 12 Height of the triangle is equal to side of square Area of triangle =\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 12× 24 = 144 cm2 |
